Welcome to LINXS webinar series - Let’s dive into the atoms! introducing x-ray and neutron science from a methods perspective. The aim is to create a fundamental understanding of how you as a researcher can use x-rays and neutrons in your own research.
When: Wednesday, 3rd June 2020, 14.00-15.00

Speaker: Jens Uhlig – Synchrotron Experiments, Chemical Physics Lund University
Title: An introductory lecture on synchrotron-based X-rays, possible experiments at different beamlines
Abstract: In this introductory lecture we will discuss the basics of x-ray science for the modern Chemist. We start with an overview over the most important techniques for Chemists covering x-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy, Photo-electron spectroscopy and various scattering techniques. We will then gain an overview over x-ray sources including table-top, laser based and sources at large scale facilities and discuss various analysis and detection methods for x-rays and electrons with outlook on modern developments. The lecture is intended as a brief introduction for scientists that have not been in contact with x-ray science. Most of the techniques will be introduced in greater detail by experts in the field in following seminars.
Bio: Jens Uhlig is a lector at Chemical Physics, Department of Chemistry, Lund University. He works on ultrafast spectroscopy and x-ray spectroscopy, both at large scale facilities and tabletop x-ray sources. Jens studied Physics at the University of Jena- Germany and worked on Thin-film growth/high-temperature superconductor. Jens did his PhD on ultrafast x-ray spectroscopy, Laser plasma x-ray source, detector development at Lund University. Soon after, Jens joined NIST Laboratory in Boulder, Colorado, and ESRF- Grenoble as a postdoctoral scholar.
