The Advanced Photon Source
a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science User Facility

Hybrid First Experiments Workshop for In Situ Nanoprobe (ISN) beamline at 19-ID and PtychoProbe beamline at 33-ID

PtychoProbe

The Advanced Photon Source will hold a hybrid workshop to explore ideas for potential first experiments at the ISN and PtychoProbe beamlines. This two-day workshop will be held on Thursday, August 3 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT and Friday, August 4, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. CT. Registrants can attend the session in person at the APS or virtually. Remote attendees will be able to participate in discussions.

Please register for the ISN and PtychoProbe First Experiments Workshop by filling out this registration form and indicating whether you will attend in person or virtually. Those attending in person will receive gate passes and instructions in a follow-up email. Those attending virtually will also receive instructions for how to join the meeting remotely in a follow-up e-mail. Please register by July 19.

A full agenda for the event is still being finalized, but topics will include status and overview of the ISN and PtychoProbe beamlines, energy conversion and storage, nanoelectronics and quantum materials, environmental engineering and heterogeneous catalysis. 

 

Location: Bldg. 401, 5th Floor, Room A5000
