MAX IV – We make the invisible visible

Congratulations Dr. Olsson, our newest MAX IV PhD

Teresia Olsson defended her thesis this week titled “Timing Modes for the MAX IV Storage Rings”.

Design current in 1.5 GeV ring

Many years of work have finally paid off reaching 500 mA in the soft X-ray storage ring
