One Day Workshop: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics at the LCLS.
1st July 2009 10am - 5pm
Daresbury Laboratory
The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator
Centre (SLAC) is a new free electron laser that produces femtosecond pulses
of light in the 800 eV to 2 keV photon energy
range. The availability of short pulse, high intensity radiation in the XUV
promises to bring many new scientific opportunities, and this new light
source has an end station specifically designed for Atomic,
Molecular and Optical Physics experiments. User operations with this AMO
instrument begin in August 2009.
This one day workshop aims to develop UK activity with the LCLS AMO
instrument. The keynote speaker at the workshop will be the LCLS AMO
instrument lead scientist, John Bozek. The workshop will bring together AMO
scientists in the UK to learn about LCLS AMO capabilities with a view to
developing collaborations and proposals for work at the LCLS leading to UK
activity at the LCLS AMO end station. Interested academics at any stage of
their career are encouraged to attend.
The speakers are:
* John Bozek, lead scientist for the AMO instrument at the LCLS
* Marc Vrakking, FOM Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics
* Klaus von Haeften, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of
Leicester
* Kiyoshi Ueda, Tohuku University, Japan
