Synchrotron radiation based research is performed on both the MAX I (550 MeV), the MAX II (1.5 GeV) and the MAX III (700 MeV) storage rings. There are in total about twenty experimental stations available for research covering a wide range of scientific areas and photon energy ranges.

Yearly more than 800 individual researchers use the laboratory to carry out experiments in a variety of disciplines including surface science, semiconductor physics, materials science, atomic and molecular physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine.

The synchrotron radiation from the three storage rings covers the wave-length range from the far infrared trough the UV, VUV, soft x-ray up to the hard x-ray range using radiation from bending magnets or insertion devices.

Among the techniques used at these beamlines are infra-red spectroscopy and microscopy, VUV and soft x-ray electron spectroscopy and microscopy, soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism, x-ray fluorescence, x-ray absorption spectroscopy and a wide range of different x-ray diffraction and scattering techniques.

A general description of the synchrotron radiation activities and reports on recent scientific research results from the different beamlines are found in our annually issued Activity Report, which can be read on-line, down-loaded or ordered as a hard copy.
