Center for X-rays in Swedish Material Science (CeXS)
Project description
The PETRA III Swedish Node is distinctive in its capability to obtain signals deep inside materials with high measurement time resolution. The PETRA III Swedish Node comprises i) the Swedish Material Science (SMS) beamline at the PETRA III synchrotron in Hamburg and ii) the Center for X-rays in Swedish Material Science (CeXS). CeXS safeguards Swedish interests at PETRA III and acts as the academic host of the SMS beamline. CeXS activities include: i) raising awareness about research possibilities; ii) providing training and support about why, when and how to use high-energy x-rays; and, iii) disseminating results. A key contribution of CeXS is ensuring a use perspective is taken in decision making about ongoing operational developments and upgrade planning.
