 Final Conference ISTEGIM of the European ITN MIGRATEThe European ITN MIGRATE, located at IMT, organizes its final conference on thermal effects in gas flows in microscale ISTEGIM in Ettlingen near Karlsruhe in October 2019. Extended abstracts are welcome through www.istegim.eu. |
 Vector Foundation funds the development of a liquid X-ray lensThe foundation supports only about 8% of the applications and supports the innovative proposal even without the usual oral presentation. A liquid X-ray lens could be used in the white X-ray beam of a synchrotron source or a free-electron laser, since heating and damage to the lens are constantly cured. Liquid X-ray lens |
