Talk to us

Reach out to the MAX IV Industrial Relations Office and we will guide you to become a MAX IV user. Together we will decide what analytical techniques you need.

To understand how to best design and set up your experiment, we will arrange a meeting with our beamline staff to go through your challenge or research question in detail. We will look at the size and thickness of your sample, evaluate if a particular sample environment is needed, discuss safety precautions, and find a time to schedule your experiment.
