The next Inside Diamond open day will feature stalls and activities, a short introduction to Diamond and a tour of the machine. We expect the visit will last around two and a half hours. Booking for open days opens 6-8 weeks in advance of the event. Click here for more details.
Organiser: Tom Arnold
Location: Meeting Room G53, Diamond House
Energy research remains one of the key scientific priorities worldwide. In this workshop we aim to show how synchrotron radiation research, using several different techniques, is helping to understand some of the important challenges in this area. The content will be aimed at users working in interdisciplinary fields related to energy generation and storage, catalysis and related environmental research.
