Motivation

This is a two-day Symposium (“EXAFS-50”) that will be devoted to marking the 50th anniversary of discovery of EXAFS. The workshop will bring together the scientists that will talk about the past and present of EXAFS technique and cover topics discussing its future potential and applications. EXAFS is one of the major synchrotron techniques at the DOE light sources and the workshop’s scope directly supports the mission of DOE to establish leadership in advanced characterization at the DOE large user facilities.
