MAPEX-CF Workshop on Diffraction

04-06 September 2023

Initiated by the MAPEX-CF research area X-ray Diffraction, this workshop connected around 35 participants who work with Diffraction of X-ray, electron, and neutron beams. Such experiments were discussed from both experimental as well as theoretical viewpoints by the speakers from the University of Bremen and other German research institutions.

The three-day workshop started with talks giving an overview of the research field and describing the most important experimental and theoretical techniques, ensuring that all participants, including many early-career investigators, were able to follow the presentations of cutting-edge research performed at the University of Bremen and elsewhere in the following days.

The complete program and more information can be found at the webpage of the workshop.

MAPEX-CF Workshop – Functional Oxides: synthesis, analysis, and characterization

09-10 June 2022

Promoted by the MAPEX-CF investigation areas Spectroscopy and X-ray Diffraction, this workshop connected researchers working with 'Functional Oxides' and provided different perspectives ranging from synthesis and characterization to the applications of such materials. Around 30 participants from diverse research areas ranging from Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering joined the event at the campus of the University of Bremen and also online.

During the two days of the event, a multidisciplinary audience was able to follow invited talks from experts from Germany and abroad showcasing cutting-edge research done with oxides. Hot topics such as synthesis of nanoparticle oxides, thin-film and single-crystal growth, structure-property relationships, and advanced characterization techniques were covered and valuable discussions took place.

The event was closed with guided laboratory tours, where the participants could see firsthand the instrumentation available at MAPEX-CF within the investigation areas Spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction, and Electron Microscopy.

MAPEX workshop & user meeting - 3D Materials Analytics 2021

08 September 2021

Developed within the investigation area 3D Materials Analytics of the MAPEX-CF, this meeting aimed to connect researchers active or interested in the fields of x-ray microscopy and x-ray computed tomography. From engineering to biology, geology, and materials science, the one-day workshop and user meeting hosted around 30 participants from diverse research areas in a fully virtual environment.

Early career researchers were given the opportunity to present their work and also follow an outstanding introductory lecture about 3D X-ray microscopy and X-ray microtomography given by Dr. Wolf-Achim Kahl, displaying the know-how that MAPEX and MAPEX-CF can offer to the science community. The event was complemented by round-table discussions, which instigated the knowledge exchange between the participants further strengthening the commitment of the MAPEX and MAPEX-CF to connect researchers and bridge the gaps between scientific fields.

A complete list of contributions can be found in the workshop flyer.
