What Does ESS Stand For?
ESS stands for European Spallation Source
The European Spallation Source (ESS) is a major research facility located in Lund, Sweden, dedicated to the development and utilization of neutron scattering techniques. As a leading center for materials research, the ESS provides scientists with powerful tools to investigate the structure and dynamics of materials at the atomic level. The facility employs advanced spallation neutron sources, generated through the interaction of protons with heavy metal targets, enabling groundbreaking studies in diverse fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. The ESS serves as a collaborative hub for researchers from across Europe and beyond, fostering innovation and knowledge sharing in the scientific community.
