UCANS 11

11th International Meeting of the Union for Compact Accelerator-driven Neutron Sources

TRIUMF, Canada’s Particle Accelerator Centre is proud to host the 11th International Meeting of the Union for Compact Accelerator-driven Neutron Sources (CANS) from February 24-28, 2025. The Union for Compact Accelerator-driven Neutron Sources was formed in 2010 to support the ongoing development of small accelerator-based neutron sources around the world.

UCANS11 is the 11th meeting in a biennial series of meetings that are dedicated to ongoing development of CANS, technology challenges and emerging science and novel applications. UCANS 11 is committed to continue advancing the equal participation and collaboration between scientists in all countries in its activities and the principle of free and responsible practice of science. 

Established in 1968 in Vancouver, TRIUMF is Canada’s particle accelerator centre. TRIUMF employs a unique accelerator complex, that comprises high intensity driver beams for secondary particle production and a world class rare isotope facility – ISAC. TRIUMF is a centre of excellence in Accelerator Science and collaboration partner in Canadian activities on CANS. 

The venue will be decided shortly, and we are working on the meeting schedule and will provide more details as soon as the web page is online. However, we would like to announce the timeline for the meeting so far: 

  • Registration and abstract submission open: September 2024  
  • Abstract submission and registration deadline: end of November 2024 
  • Final program available: January 2025 
  • Proceedings manuscript deadline: February 2025 

The final registration fee will be announced on the registration web page and will be determined based on possible supply chain issues and inflation in this post-pandemic time.  

We look forward to seeing you at UCANS11 in February 2025.
