Physical Sciences Program 2002:
The program will provide a comprehensive overview of the synchrotron radiation process, requisite technologies and a broad range of scientific applications. It will cover both fundamentals of EUV, soft x-ray, hard x-ray synchrotron radiation and its use in spectroscopy and diffraction. Science applications will be given both in physics, chemistry and material science. Lectures are presented by scientists from the sponsoring organizations and affiliated user communities. The attendees will participate in experiments on different beamlines at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) and make visits inside the storage ring at Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL).
The program for Physical Sciences Course includes a combined program with the Life Sciences Course for Monday morning and all day Friday. The remaining formal Physical and Life Sciences sessions will be held in parallel. All students and lecturers will meet for joint breakfast, lunch and dinner sessions. The Physical Sciences program, including the joint sessions, is outlined below.
