SAS 2027 will be held in Lund Sweden Sep 12-17 2027

  • SasView, A Community Analysis Software Project

    SasView is a SAS analysis software project, originally developed as part of the NSF DANSE project under the name SansView, now managed by an international collaboration of facilities. The SasView project is exploring an open source, collaborative, community development model. where all members of the community are encouraged to participate in whatever way they can from providing sys admin services, to tutorials, to youtube videos, to code and much more. SasView is a Small Angle Scattering Analysis Software Package, originally developed as part of the NSF DANSE project under the name SansView, now managed by an international collaboration of facilities. Feedback and contributions are welcome and encouraged.

  • Collective Action for Nomadic Small Angle Scatterers

    canSAS, Collective Action for Small Angle Scattering, provides a forum for SAS users and providers to come together to discuss common needs and issues, to learn from each others experiences, discuss current best practices, hear about emerging techniques, and importantly to identify areas where the field/state of the art could be improved by bringing together the people that are interested and able to work cooperatively to solve the problem. The workshops and working group activities are self assembled/bootstrap efforts to brings together interested members of the community to build solutions. This portal is one example outcome from these activities.

  • International SAS Meetings

    SAS meetings are held triennially and are the premier way that the SAS community comes together to discuss the current state of the art of the technique, the latest cutting edge science enabled by the technique, meet up with colleagues and discuss the future of the field. It is also a time to celebrate the accomplishments and advances in the field. The ultimate award from the community recognizing outstanding achievements and contributions to the community is the Gunier Prize in honor of Andre Guinier, one of the pioneers of the Small Angle technique.

Vote for the location of SAS-2021

The SAS Commission of the IUCr eventually received three bids to host SAS-2021 from (in alphabetical order) Brazil, Korea & Taiwan.

Those that registered for SAS-2009 (Oxford), SAS-2012 (Sydney) and SAS-2015 (Berlin) - and who have not changed email address in the meantime! - will receive a personalised invitation to vote for their preferred candidate bid from Dr Daniel Clemens of the HZB, local organiser of SAS-2015, around December 7, 2016. The electronic poll closes at 13:00 CET on December 21, 2016.

canSAS IX

The 9th canSAS (Collective Action for Nomadic Small Angle Scatterers) workshop will take place at the Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, San Francisco, CA, USA from June 5-7, 2017.

CanSAS is an ongoing activity to provide the small-angle scattering user community with shared tools and information.

This work involves both users and facilities and currently includes:

SAS-2021 & beyond

The location of the XVIII Conference on Small-Angle Scattering, SAS-2021, was not decided at SAS-2015 in Berlin as no formal (complete) bids had been received in time. Accordingly, the SAS Commission of the IUCr has decided to EXTEND THE SUBMISSION DEADLINE to 1 February 2016.
