Muography School

The Muography School aims to go beyond the basics and provide practical experiences to students and early carrier scientists. The school will start with lectures at the conference venue on the first day. Then lab practices and a discussion session will be held in HUN-REN Wigner RCP on the second day. Important information and a tentative schedule is detailed as follows.


To whom: students and early carrier researchers (within eight years of the award of the PhD)
