Séminaire - Science Opportunities with Diffraction Limited Soft X-ray Beams

(Deputy for Science, Advanced Light Source, Berkeley Lab,  Berkeley, USA)

The emergence of high brightness multibend achromat accelerator lattice designs opens new science opportunities based on x-ray beams with full or nearly full transverse coherence.  I will discuss early science opportunities enabled by the ALS Upgrade discussed in a recent workshop.  

A primary focus will be the ability to probe spontaneous, nanoscale/nanometer processes like nucleation, carrier motion at steady state, and solvent cage effects.
