The RIXS (Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering) technique was pioneered already in the 1980’s, and since then it has provided a broad range of applications. It relies heavily on access to a high brilliance source of primary photons, and it is only recently that the full power of the method has been realised. The new synchrotrons
FinEstBeAMS is a materials and atmospheric science beamline at the MAX IV 1.5 GeV storage ring. It provides ultraviolet and soft X-ray radiation with precisely controlled and widely variable parameters. The beamline has two branches: one branch is dedicated to ultra-high vacuum studies of surfaces and interfaces and the other to gas-phase experiments and photoluminescence
