The Beamline Jockey Days are a series of events during which scientists, engineers and technicians working on synchrotron tomography beamlines in Europe have been meeting since 2018 in facilities across the continent.

 

These informal workshops allow participants to exchange freely on technical issues, potential areas of common interest, challenges encountered, etc. The focus is on direct communication and knowledge transfer at the operational level.

 

MAX IV is pleased to host the 2025 meeting on the MAX IV site in Lund (Sweden) on October 1st and 2nd (Wednesday and Thursday, lunch-to-lunch) of 2025.

 

The central theme this time will be "4th gen sources: challenges and opportunities".

 

Registration is mandatory but free of charge. All travel costs, including accommodation are at the participant's expense.
