titleThe year in the XRD-lab

Autumn:

September - November: Many new users are coming during this period and we arrange instrument trainings for new users almost every week, or even more often if necessary.

Mid-October - November: Introduction to XRD-analysis course and TOPAS Workshops will be arranged. The TOPAS Workshop builds on the Introduction course (or the FACET crash course).

Winter:

December - January: Reduced service levels in the XRD-lab over the Christmas holiday period, thereafter possibly reduced service due to maintenance and upkeep.

Summer:
