Virtual Seminar (Thu Nov 21): Fast Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy, Today and at ALS-U
by Brandy Toner 16 Nov '24

16 Nov '24

*Fast Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy: Enabling New Science Today and at the ALS-U* Dr. Alex Ditter (LBNL) *Thursday November 21*: 9am Seattle; 11am Saskatoon; 12 noon New York; 2pm Rio de Janeiro; 5pm London; 6pm Berlin; 7pm Cape Town; 8pm Amman; 2am (11/22) Tokyo; 4am (11/22) Melbourne *link*: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://washington.zoom.us/j/95725226444__;!!G_u… *password*: EXAFS Many recent and planned upgrades to lightsources around the world are focused on improving emittance and maximizing coherent flux.1 Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopes (STXMs) and ptychography beamlines can use these improvements only if detector speed, scanning speed, data pipelines, and data analysis tools are able to keep up. We will discuss here a brief overview of Advanced Light Source (ALS) Beamline 7.0.1.22, 3 and focus on recent developments in improving scanning speed. This is accomplished through the implementation of a spiral scan pattern originally developed for atomic force microscopy,4 and which improves scanning time by a factor of 3-5. This not only improves throughput but also enables new science as demonstrated by large population particle measurements and the observation of in situ dynamics on the time scale of seconds. We will also discuss how fast scanning will tie into other beamline improvements planned for the ALS upgrade. 1.

Dear colleagues, we are delighted to announce that we will organize the XIX^th EMPG meeting in Orleans, France, on June 16-19^th , 2025. EMPG means Experimental Mineralogy Petrology and Geochemistry, that is to say the congress for those who use experiments to understand the functioning of Earth's and planetary systems. Please save the date and plan your travel as there will be, around mid-June to early-July 2025, three important meetings in a row in Europe: EMPG-2025 in Orléans, IAVCEI-2025 in Geneva, and the Goldschmidt-2025 in Prague. Our website is active at https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://empg2025.sciencesconf.org/__;!!G_uCfscf7… . Email: empg2025(a)sciencesconf.org. Abstract submission: December 1^st – February 4^th . A 1-day post-conference short course at our Insitute, ISTO (https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://www.isto-orleans.fr/en/home/__;!!G_uCfsc… ), is under consideration. More to follow on this subject. We organize a pre-meeting field trip (South Brittany, 12-15 June) including transportation from Paris and ending in Orléans the day before the congress. This field trip will give you the opportunity to visit the beautiful world-class metamorphic terrains at “Iles de Groix” and “Quiberon”. We however have to work with very a limited number of participants (<25). Please be prompt and get in touch with us if you want to be part of it. Best regards from the Organizing committee.

Beamtime for SEES beamlines at the APS
by Mark Rivers 21 Oct '24

21 Oct '24

Dear SEES Users, The Advanced Photon Source (APS) has opened the General User Proposal (GUP) call for the 2025-1 run cycle with a deadline of October 25. APS has also opened a Rapid Access Proposal (RAP) call for 2024-3. All SEES beamlines at the APS (3-ID, 6-BM, and all Sector 13 beamlines) will participate in both the 2025-1 GUP and 2024-3 RAP calls. The NSF SEES beamlines and techniques will come online for user experiments at different times as they become ready over the coming months. The APS-U storage ring itself is still undergoing commissioning activities. We're excited to welcome users back to conduct early experiments in 2024-3 and 2025-1. These represent critical steps in commissioning the capabilities of the new facility and beamlines. This time period will likely entail a higher probability of lost user beamtime due to issues encountered with the storage ring or the beamline components when compared with mature general user operations. More details about the beamline commissioning process, return to user experiments, and status of individual SEES beamlines at the APS can be found at https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://seescience.org/aps-upgrade_status/__;!!G… . If you would like to submit either a Rapid Access Proposal for 2024-3 or a General User Proposal for 2025-1, please visit https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://ups.servicenowservices.com/ups__;!!G_uCf… . We encourage you to first contact the appropriate beamline scientist to discuss feasibility of your proposed research. Whether beamtime will be allocated for a particular proposal in 2024-3 or 2025-1 will depend on readiness of the instruments and optics required, in addition to numerical score. Users for whom we are able to allocate beamtime for the 2024-3 run (either through the prior GUP or the current RAP call) will be contacted about scheduling if and when the beamline/technique is ready. Beamtime for the 2025-1 run will be scheduled similarly for beamlines that are still commissioning at that time and via the APS scheduling system for beamlines that have transitioned to general user operations by then. Best regards, Mark Rivers, NSF SEES Chief Technology Officer

Polymorphism of Superionic Ice: Static vs Dynamic Compression Dr. Vitali Pakapenka Center for Advanced Radiations Sources The University of Chicago Date: Thursday, October 17, 2024 at 2 p.m. ET Abstract: Water is abundant in natural environments, but its structure and physical properties at ultra extreme conditions remain uncertain. A family of superionic ices with highly mobile protons within the stable oxygen sublattice has been predicted at high pressures in a pressure-temperature phase space that borders the familiar high-pressure solid ices and the fluid. However, the existence of superionic ices, their phase boundaries, and the location of the melting line have been challenging to assess due to the extreme difficulties and uncertainties in both theory and experiments, which yielded contradictory results depending on the techniques applied and data interpretation. Here I will present results of recent measurements on superionic phase boundaries determined at different experimental conditions with extensive comparison to available static and dynamic data including theoretical simulations. Unique properties of superionic phases will be discussed in the light of understanding the pathway of phase transitions in the time-domain experiments. Biography: Dr. Pakapenka’s research interests are in the field of the solid-state physics, which is dedicated to understand how extreme conditions (both static and dynamic) affect the physical and chemical properties of materials: structure, phase transition, melting, partitioning, chemical reaction, diffusion, elasticity etc. that can be used for realistic modeling of the composition and dynamics of the terrestrial and giant planet interiors, development of theoretical models. His current primary focus is pushing the limits of ultra-high pressure and temperature experiments to 1 TPa and 10,000 K, which will permit in situ experiments addressing the phase diagrams of compounds relevant to giant planet interiors, light element partitioning between molten iron alloys and silicates, and the synthesis of novel high-pressure materials. Dr. Prakapenka received his Ph.D. in Solid State Physics from the Moscow Engineering Physics Institut. He was a researcher at the Advanced Materials research Laboratory at the Gomel State University in Belarus. He joined the University of Chicago Center for Advanced Radiation Sources in 2001 and is currently a research professor. Join the conversation!
