New Instrumentation for Soft X-ray Photon-In-Photon-Out Spectroscopy

Friday, June 16, 2006 (Half Day Workshop)

The workshop will address new developments in Photon-in Photon-out spectroscopy in the soft X-ray range. The focus will be on (1) which properties each technique is probing which key questions can be pursued with photon-in photon-out spectroscopy and (2) what the current limitations are.
After an introduction to the techniques, research examples will demonstrate the power of such diverse techniques as Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering  – RIXS – (by Denlinger and Ghiringhelli), x-ray excited optical luminescence – XEOL – (Sham) and resonant elastic X-ray scattering  – REXS – (Hawthorn).

Workshop Organizer: Alexander Moewes, University of Saskatchewan

Location:      Arts 101

The following proposed agenda will be updated as meeting details are confirmed.
