School on Advanced Light Sources: Principles, Methods and Multidisciplinary Applications * CANCELLED *

Administration

Description

Note: ICTP has suspended all educational activities from 24 February up to 15 May as precautionary measures due to COVID-19; more details at
https://www.ictp.it/about-ictp/media-centre/news/2020/2/ictp_suspend_activities.aspx

The School targets young scientists to introduce them to the exceptional research opportunities offered by synchrotron and free-electron-laser (FEL) facilities worldwide for exploring the properties of all types of matter.

The school will provide an overview of the production and characteristics of synchrotron and free-electron-laser light, its interaction with matter and the numerous experimental methods enabled by these interactions that have become indispensable tools spanning over all domains of basic and applied research. The school lecturers will demonstrate the multidisciplinary applications and the most recent instrumental developments and science breakthroughs in the fields relevant to their expertise. The program will also include discussions of the lecturers with the students, talks describing the open access to these facilities based on the merits of the proposed project and possible industrial application. Demonstration sessions will be organized at the beamlines of Elettra’s synchrotron and FEL facilities.

Topics:
•   Production of Synchrotron and FEL Radiation
•   Properties of Synchrotron and FEL Light
•   Photon-Matter Interactions
•   Photon Transport and Beamline Instrumentation
•   X-ray Absorption and Fluorescence Spectroscopy
•   Photoelectron Spectroscopy Methods
