Ukrainian synchrotron and neutron users' community (USyNC) is a very young organization that is just taking the first steps towards official registration. Ukrainian synchrotron and neutron radiation users` organization was officially founded at the meeting on November 2, 2023. There are 70-80 active users of synchrotron radiation in Ukraine, based or associated with Ukrainian institutions. At...
The electronic band structure holds the key to understanding the properties of quantum materials, as well as the mechanisms behind quantum phenomena like superconductivity and other electronic orderings. In this talk, I will briefly review our results in this area and highlight cases where synchrotron experiments play a crucial role in determining the real electronic band structure, thereby...
The SOLARIS synchrotron in Krakow, Poland, is a third-generation light source operating at 1.5 GeV electron energy. The project was officially initiated in 2010, the first synchrotron light was observed in 2016, and the first user experiment was performed in 2018. At present, SOLARIS Centre offer access to 10 research instruments at seven beamlines and two cryo-electron microscopes, and is...
PolyX (polychromatic X-rays and polycpaillary X-ray optics) is a newly developed bending magnet beamline at SOLARIS National Synchrotron Radiation Centre in Kraków, Poland. SOLARIS is a 1.5 GeV synchrotron (circumference 96m) build with unique collaboration between MAX IV Laboratory and Jagiellonian University [1].The beamline is dedicated to X-ray microimaging and X-ray spectromicroscopy [2]...
The ASTRA beamline at the SOLARIS synchrotron (Krakow, Poland) is a relatively new bending magnet beamline, having been open for user operation for just 14 months. As suggested by its name (ASTRA - “Absorption Spectroscopy beamline for Tender energy Range and Above”), it is an X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) beamline. The photon energy range covered by ASTRA extends from 1 to 15 keV,...
X-ray spectroscopy experiments often require high-brilliance sources of X-ray radiation, provided by synchrotron or X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) facilities. However, acquiring access to such facilities is a complex procedure, which involves proposal application, long wait for the beamtime and travel expenses. Recent advances in the compact X-ray sources allowed for development of...
