SAXS Tensor Tomography Workshop

Sep 30. till Sep 30.

SAXS Tensor Tomography Workshop

Diamond Light Source and I22 are hosting a SAXS Tensor Tomography workshop on Friday 30th September 2022 with the aim of discussing the latest advances and opportunities in this emerging technique. The workshop will bring people together to explore potential for the technique and share experimental experiences and theory advances. This is a great opportunity to help Diamond/I22 drive the next phase of development in this exciting new field. As well as talks, we welcome contributions in the form of posters from attendees.
