BCA Spring Meeting 2004 University of Manchester Tuesday 6 March to Thursday 8 April 2004

As anyone who has recently visited the Rutherford Appleton Laboratories will know, construction for Diamond is now well under way: the foundations are built and the steel framework for the ring and main buildings are being rapidly assembled (e.g. see the photographs in the March edition of Crystallography News).

The plenary session will provide an update on the development of beamlines that are of interest to the crystallographic community, and include a discussion of the lines that have been approved and of those that are currently under consideration. The session will end with an open discussion on matters of general interest with respect to Diamond.
