XAS/XES School 2021 on
Advanced Synchrotron Methods:
X-ray Absorption and Emission spectroscopy

02/06/2021-04/06/2021
Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU)
Moscow, Russia

The school will be held online

Schedule

Scope: X-ray spectroscopy is one of the demanded technique at the synchrotron light sources and XFELs. LMSU offers a 3 days training course in X-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy (XAS and XES) and related techniques, as high-energy-resolution fluorescence detection (HERFD), Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) and X-ray RAMAN/NIXS. The course will gather experienced scientists, active in the field of X-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy, who will share their expertise with MS/PhD students, post-docs and young scientists, interested in learning about the fundamental principles and applications of X-ray spectroscopy methods in their research. The school is also open to senior scientists.
