SOLEIL Synchrotron staff wishes you a very happy new year! 2019 is proclaimed the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements by UNESCO. This table is a "tabular view of all the (...)

"Multifunctional" materials have several physical properties that can be used in a single application. The coupling between their different physical properties is one of the key questions to address (...)

In close collaboration with hospitals, SOLEIL takes part in the design of new methods to diagnose diseases at an early stage and seeks to better understand the evolution of pathologies. Its longterm (...)

Information : Synchrotron SOLEIL commissioned an independent inquiry, composed of scientific experts, in order to clarify the circumstances leading to the retraction, by the authors, of the article : (...)

Using X-ray diffraction, researchers of CEA and SOLEIL Synchrotron have just succeeded in characterising the microstructure of a nuclear fuel transverse section that had been irradiated in a reactor (...)

In October 2018, SOLEIL Management approved the implementation of a SOLEIL data management policy for experimental data, and associated metadata, which are collected, reduced, processed and / or (...)

In cold and dense regions of the interstellar medium, numerous molecules are observed. Some move freely in the gas phase, others are frozen at the surface of tiny dust grains, forming so-called ice (...)

The transport of metallic trace elements (MTE), whether of natural origin or related to the human activities, is a major challenge in the preservation of ecosystems and public health. This transport (...)

Dichro50, a project supported by DEIMOS beamline and close collaborators (presented in " Rayon de SOLEIL" in January 2017) has come to an end with a world temperature record for XMCD measurements in (...)

Interfaces between complex oxide materials exhibit remarkably rich physics that are very promising for future applications in tomorrow’s electronics, i.e. spintronics. Particularly fascinating is (...)

Tandem mass spectrometry is of central importance in analytical and structural chemistry. This technology involves breaking up the molecules being studied to deduce information about their initial (...)

The origin of life on Earth is an extremely complex research field for which several hypotheses are being considered. Some studies consider extra-terrestrial contributions via meteorites or asteroids (...)
