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.
Organisers: Riccardo Bartolini, Daniel Clare, Steve Collins, Sarnjeet Dhesi, Gwyndaf Evans, Allen Orville and Alistair Siebert
Location: Pickavance Lecture Theatre, RAL
This workshop is for researchers in the physical and life sciences who use or plan to use XFEL sources and/or electron microscopy for their research. The workshop will also be of interest to anyone who would like to find out more about how the unique properties of XFEL sources and electron microscopes might impact on their future science.
