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 (...)

Heat recovery (solar energy, heat pumps, air conditioning, cooling...) has become a technological challenge of increasing significance in this era of awareness of the importance of sustainable (...)

The determination of the predominant forms of radionuclides in the marine environment has become a major area of research for many research institutes specializing in the impact of military and (...)

The immortality of cancer cells associated with loss of life/death control mechanisms such as the regulation of apoptosis (programmed cell death), is a common stage in tumours. Mitochondria play an (...)

The first byte of experimental data was stored on DIFFABS on September 13, 2006, and now twelve years later, the scientists and users at SOLEIL will also remember the date of July 17, 2018­, when all (...)

Every year since 1992, the Fête de la Science is in full swing in all the cities of France, and even in Oversea Territories! This year, its 27th edition runs from October 6 to 14, with several (...)

 Characterization of materials under high pressure and temperature conditions are of great interest in planetary and materials sciences. Many efforts have focused on the development of in situ three (...)

Friday, September 7 th, 2018: what a great day for Synchrotron SOLEIL! After 10 years of light with our users (SOLEIL welcomes them since 2008), we were very happy and excited to welcome our 10 000 th (...)

The SMIS beamline recently hosted the Optical Service Team of the “Institut d’Astrophysique Spatiale” ( Orsay). They established a very accurate calibration procedure of infrared Fabry-Perot filters (...)
