Follow-up

Do you have any other comments about your synchrotron/FEL needs, which you would like to highlight here?

As input for our upcoming report for VR, we will comment on the questions below and we would be happy to get your personal view. Please leave your contact information below, if you want to give more input.

-Are relevant efforts being made today to increase knowledge in Sweden about the methods used at SR/FEL facilities so that new user groups can come in? What needs to be done to further raise awareness of these resources?
-Does a Swedish utilization of MAX IV require a specific focus in terms of future instrumentation at the facility?
-Should MAX IV be given a special responsibility for building long-term Swedish competence in the SR/FEL area?

Would you be happy to be contacted to answer more questions about your synchrotron/FEL needs?
