MAX IV’s role in the Government’s Research Bill

The Government asks a number of referral bodies, including universities, government agencies, and other organisations, to give input and suggestions to their proposed research and innovation politics. Here is a…

Simulation and Design

The optical layout of beamlines at MAX IV are typically designed in close collaboration with our optics simulation experts. MAX IV uses a number of simulation tools to perform ray…
