The Master’s programme provides you with knowledge of how to generate and use X-rays and neutron beams. Thanks to their unique properties, they enable researchers to investigate materials in a broad range of different research fields, from fundamental issues of physics, quantum physics and materials sciences to studies in biology, geology, medicine and archaeology. During your studies you will learn how to use X-rays to investigate materials, catalysis and crystal growth using spectroscopy, diffraction and microscopy. You will also learn how neutrons can be used to investigate proteins, magnetism and superconductivity. You will receive training in the practical use of both accelerator facilities. The programme has a flexible structure enabling you to combine theory, computation and experimentation. The programme will enable you to be part of a dynamic interdisciplinary research environment whose activities are characterised by international collaborations with experimental research teams.
