HESEB Soft X-ray Lectures & Training Course at SESAME

The program takes two full days at SESAME and includes:

• Lectures on soft x-ray science and related instrumentation
• Hands-on training and participation in HESEB's experimental activities
• Opportunities for networking with international experts 
• Hints for writing successful beamtime proposals

Participation in the hands-on training is limited to ten participants - PhD students and first-year postdocs. Participants in former HESEB events are not eligible.

Successful applicants will receive a daily allowance and get their travel and accommodation expenses reimbursed.

The program targets researchers from universities and research institutions in a SESAME member (Cyprus, Egypt, Iran, Israel, Jordan, Pakistan, Palestine, and Türkiye). The candidates are expected to have concrete ideas for the use of soft x-rays in their research even if they lack the necessary experience.

The candidates are requested to register here. The organizers may invite prospective candidates for a 15-minute Zoom interview prior to announcing selection results. 

The deadline for registration is September 15, 2024.
