SHUG Beamline Scientist Awards
The SHUG Award for Excellence in Beamline Science recognizes beamline scientists who have made significant scientific contributions in their area of research or instrumentation development, and have participated in the growth and enrichment of the user community.
Two awards are conferred in alternate years at the SNS and HFIR Users Group (SHUG) User Meeting to an active SNS and HFIR beamline scientist, one for each facility.
