The Ultrafast X-Ray Summer School (UXSS) is an annual school on X-ray science aimed at PhD students and postdocs. The program of the school consists of eight lectures given by distinguished scientists in the field, a site-visit at DESY and the European XFEL, and guided hands-on project work in which the participants work out a mock proposal for beam time at European XFEL.

The lectures cover the following topics in ultrafast X-ray science:

  • fundamentals of x-ray free-electron lasers
  • theory of x-ray matter interaction
  • atomic and molecular physics
  • condensed matter physics
  • structural biology
  • matter in extreme conditions
  • chemical dynamics in liquid phase
  • chemical dynamics in gas phase

We hope you will join us for a productive and instructive event in June.

The Organizers:
Ludger Inhester (CFEL/DESY, chair)
Shambhu Ghimire (PULSE Institute/SLAC, co-chair)
Christoph Bostedt (PSI, co-chair)
 

The Ultrafast X-ray Summer School (UXSS) is jointly organized by CFEL, the PULSE institute at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI). The summer school has a long history dating back to the first UXSS in 2007 (see Past summer schools). The UXSS 2023 is hosted by the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) at DESY in Hamburg, Germany, and is kindly supported by the Joachim Herz foundation.
