Round Table: Novel Opportunities for France/Germany Cooperation in Neutron Science — •Julian Oberdisse¹, •Frank Schreiber², •Arnaud Desmedt³, •Stephan Förster⁴, •Jacques Jestin⁵, •Pascale Launois⁶, •Christian Pfleiderer⁷, and •Sabrina Disch⁸ — ¹Laboratoire Charles Coulomb, U Montpellier, France — ²Institut für Angewandte Physik, Universität Tübingen, Germany — ³Laboratoire Léon Brillouin (LLB), Gif-sur-Yvette, France, — ⁴Jülich Centre for Neutron Science (JCNS), FZ Jülich, Germany — ⁵Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), Grenoble — ⁶Laboratoire de Physique des Solides d'Orsay, France — ⁷Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), Garching, German — ⁸University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany

With current and upcoming major changes in European neutron science and facilities, Germany and France are expected to play a strong role. This emerging new landscape for neutron science offers opportunities to reshape and reinvent the traditionally strong bonds between our two countries -- both in terms of science cooperation and technical collaboration. The hosts Julian Oberdisse and Frank Schreiber look forward to a diverse panel discussion with the directors of the French and German neutron facilities as well as the chairs of the French and German neutron associations.
