SwissNeutronics management

Prof. Dr. Peter Böni, CEO, Head of the chair for experimental physics E21 at the Physics Department, Technical University Munich, D-85747 Garching, Germany (since 2000). He was responsible for the development of the supermirror technology at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. These developments allowed for the first time to build a neutron facility (i.e. SINQ at Paul Scherrer Institute) that relies completely on supermirror coated neutron guides.
P. Böni (tech@swissneutronics.ch) is responsible for the technical development and design, simulations, contracts, customer relations.

Prof. Dr. Albert Furrer, CFO, former Head of the Laboratory for Neutron Scattering ETH & PSI, Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland. He was one of the initiators to build the Swiss spallation neutron source SINQ and to establish the European Neutron Scattering Association ENSA.
A. Furrer (albert.furrer@swissneutronics.ch) is responsible for quality assurance, controlling, financial affairs and customer relations.

Dr. Christian Schanzer, COO, joined SwissNeutronics in the year 2005. In 1996 he assisted in the development of the supermirror coating technology at the FRM-II in Munich. From 1999 to 2001 he was responsible for the quality control and the installation of the neutron guide system at the new research reactor FRM-II.
C. Schanzer (christian.schanzer@swissneutronics.ch) is responsible for the project management, technical concepts, development of coatings, simulations, customer relations.

Max Koch, CDO, Former Head of Mechanics of the Laboratory for Neutron Scattering ETH & PSI, Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland. He was responsible for many technical developments for neutron instrumentation (complete spectrometers, doubly focusing monochromators, tunable focusing flight tubes, etc).
M. Koch (max.koch@swissneutronics.ch) is responsible for resource management and technical realization.
