A celebration of MAX IV’s beginnings

Rather than keep the medal, Mikael decided to donate it to everyone at MAX IV to honour their contributions.“ It would not be fair to keep the medal as it is…

Vacuum

…collisions with residual air molecules are detrimental to the stability and lifetime of the electron beam, therefore the accelerators must operate under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions to reduce the probability…

Time resolved catalysis

…preparation is available. Samples must be prepared outside and transferred via air (or inert atmosphere using the glove box). The preparation chamber in the solid-gas endstation can be used for…
