DESY, Hamburg, 2024

In the first part of September 2024, our team conducted a research project at DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron) in Hamburg, Germany. The project involved performing spectroscopic measurements in the VUV–Vis range under synchrotron radiation at cryogenic temperatures. It was an invaluable scientific experience and a great opportunity to expand both our theoretical knowledge and technical skills. A few photos from our stay are presented below.
