Beamline staff from Balder beamline, MAX IV brings experiences, and Umeå researchers give examples
This workshop aims to inspire researchers to explore the application of synchrotron-based analysis in their field of research. The main focus is sustainable and circular materials where the unique insights from synchrotrons push the frontiers of research, especially where disciplines merge around large societal challenges.
We will listen to examples from the application of synchrotron light in research from Umeå researchers. From MAX IV Laboratory, we will hear about the experiences of Kajsa Sigfridsson Clauss (beamline coordinator, Balder) and Konstantin Klementiev (beamline scientist, Balder). Balder is a beamline for hard X-ray spectroscopy (XAS & XES) in possible combination with XRD and XRF.
