Sharing knowledge is a pleasure for Roland Müller. Here he explains to his granddaughter how BESSY II works.
NEWS
Life Time Achievement Award for Roland Müller In the more than thirty years of his career at BESSY, the physicist has advanced many projects on control systems at accelerators and has been particularly committed to the international exchange of knowledge.
At the event, the Governing Mayor of Berlin, Michael Müller, emphasised the role of research in solving social problems. The HZB holds a top position in Berlin, he said.

Precision measurements lead to breakthroughs: HZB is planning the construction... The polymath Helmholtz still inspires researchers to this day, now notably in the planning of an accelerator-based light source of the latest generation, which HZB is presenting at the event.
The development of this speckle pattern over time reveals microsocopic fluctuations in the material.

When vibrations increase on cooling: Anti-freezing observed An international team has observed an amazing phenomenon in a nickel oxide material during cooling: Instead of freezing, certain fluctuations actually increase as the temperature drops. This is interesting also for high Tc-Superconductor research.
DESY researcher Wiebke Ewert shows on a so-called electron density map where a drug candidate (green) binds to the main protease of the corona virus (blue).

Renske van der Veen has a lot of experience with ultrafast x-ray measurements.
NEWS
Renske van der Veen heads new department "Atomic Dynamics in Light-Energy... The chemist is an expert in time-resolved X-ray spectroscopy and electron microscopy and studies catalytic processes that enable the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy.
For the measurement campaign, two couplers were mounted in a horizontal test position under a local clean room tent.

Accelerator Physics: HF-Couplers for bERLinPro prove resilient A first measurement campaign with optimised couplers at bERLinPro shows that the goal can be achieved.
Dr. Tristat Petit receives the ERC Starting Grant from the European Research Council for his research on a new class of materials for the storage of electrical energy, the so-called MXenes.

New Materials for Energy Storage: ERC Starting Grant for Tristan Petit ERC Starting Grant for Tristan Petit. At BESSY II, the materials researcher is using this grant to investigate a new class of materials for storing electrical energy, the so-called MXenes.
This picture shows an X-ray image of the electron beam in TRIB-mode where two orbits co-exist: the regular orbit and the second one winding around it closing only after three revolutions.
