Committee Research with Synchrotron Radiation
The Committee Research with Synchrotron Radiation is elected by the synchrotron ratiation users in Germany to represent their interest and to foster research with synchrotron radiation.
KFS and KFN support proposal of consortium for research data management
 |
The aim of the national research data infrastructure (NFDI) is to systematically manage scientific and research data, provide long-term data storage, backup and accessibility, and network the data both nationally and internationally. The NFDI will bring multiple stakeholders together in a coordinated network of consortia tasked with providing science-driven data services to research communities. In mid-October, the neutron and synchrotron communities have subnitted a proposal for an NFDI consortium ("DAta from PHoton and Neutron Experiments") to DFG. Here, you can read the summary of the proposal. [more]

The KFS has surveyed the users of synchrotron radiation in Germany
 |
Nearly 900 users of synchrotron radiation have taken part in the survey that the KFS has conducted in the end of 2018 and in the beginning of 2019. This gave us valuable insights into your needs and focuses. The survey shows that the research with synchrotron radiation has a highly diversified user community. Scientists from universities, governmental institutions and industry use a variety of methods to work on their problems concerning materials, energy, technology, health, information and other challenges. Not only physicists, chemists and biologists, but also engineers, geo- and environmental scientists, researchers in art & culture and interdisciplinary researchers depend on the methods of synchrotron radiation.
