Motivation
This workshop will bring together researchers to discuss the application and development of ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS) in a wide variety of scientific topics including catalysis, electrochemistry, materials science, and environmental science.
The workshop will feature talks from plenary and invited speakers as well as from contributed speakers, a poster session, and a technical discussion session. Participants will have the opportunity to share and learn about the latest scientific discoveries, technical developments of AP-XPS instrumentation, and discuss the future direction in the field.
NSLS-II Facility Tour
Registered participants can tour the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a state-of-the-art, 3 GeV electron storage ring designed to deliver world-leading intensity and brightness on Friday, December 12, 2025, 1:30 p.m.–4:00 p.m.
As one of the newest, most advanced synchrotron light sources in the world, it can create light beams 10 billion times brighter than the sun. These light beams are then directed towards specialized experimental stations called beamlines. Bus transportation will be provided from Atlantis Hotel and Conference Center/Brookhaven Lab. There is no cost to attend the tour. Details, Maps & Directions
