Guest affiliation Organisation/Company: https://fasem.sciencesconf.org/
Preferred dates: 16 May 2019
Group: Conference/school participants

Date of the request: 2019-03-06
Date for the visit: 16 May 2019
Visit starts: 13:30
Visit ends: 16:30

Length of the visit: 1+1 hours
Number of visitors: 38 in two grops

Education level: PhD student at the lowest till still quite young senior researcher/lecturer.
Visitor background: background is diverse but they are all educated with mathematics, physics or engineering degrees. A few of them are already synchrotron/neutron full time researchers and all participants have activities or works related to neutron/X rays.

Motivation, interest, expectations from the visitors: The presentation in the morning aims at providing overviews on ESS and Max IV facilities in order to prepare the visits in the afternoon. We think that these lectures could present the the history of MaxIV (we are at 4, why?), why this synchrotron is particular, how the beam is generated, what instruments are present and for what kind of purpose/experience. How does it sounds for you?
“…fit for “scattering” students”

(More important than a precise answer for all the individual participants  is the overall level and background of the group.)

TESTAZ Sandrine:Fench attachée for science and higher education and I organise jointly with several French and Swedish institutions the French-Swedsih advanced school FASEM on X-rays and Neutrons techniques for the study of functional materials for energy which is going to take place from May 13 to 17, in Lund.
We have planned a visit of both MaxIV and ESS on the Thursday 16 May, see the programme of the school here
https://fasem.sciencesconf.org/program

An introduction course of both infrastructures is planning on same morning.

The school will have 30-32 participants + a few lecturers.
The visit of 2 representatives from Grenoble Alpes University (Prof Eric Saint-Aman, vice-president for research at Grenoble-Alpes University, and Prof Yassine Lakhnech, Director of the Research and tech transfer), will unfortunately arrive too late to visit MaxIV.

They come in two slots, due to the requirement of combining both visits to MAX IV and ESS.
MAX IV is listed under the sponsors.

MAX IV staff involved: Ana Labrador, Åke Andersson, Takashi Tokushima, Craig
MAX IV interest: Outreach to "users-to-be" "materials for energy" communities.
