XFEL – X-ray free electron laser and its possible applications
Free electron X-ray lasers are the most brilliant sources of coherent radiation in the soft but especially in the hard X-ray region. Jozef Uličný on 11.6.2024 at Presentation of EuXFEL on 3rd Summer School of Condensed Matter in Liptovský Ján, Slovakia described in his presentation the basic characteristics and working principles of one of the best – the European XFEL from his perspective as a user, a member of the Horizon Europe project to develop a new methodology, but also examples of the use of the SPB/SFX or MID experimental station. Since Slovakia is a EuXFEL shareholder with less than adequate use of EuXFEL capabilities, the subject of the lecture was also some advice on how to be successful in beamtime proposals from the perspective of a member of the expert panel on measurement time allocation.
