Berkeley-Stanford
Summer School in
Synchrotron Radiation
July 8-14, 2001
The
first Berkeley-Stanford summer school will provide basic lectures on the
synchrotron radiation process, requisite technologies, and a broad range
of scientific applications.Visits
to both the Advanced Light Source (ALS) in Berkeley and the Stanford Synchrotron
Radiation Laboratory (SSRL) will be included, with opportunities to interact
with the professional staff and graduate students at both facilities. The
Summer school will be limited to approximately forty graduate students,
with a preference for those pursuing doctoral research in the physical
sciences in which synchrotron radiation is expected to play a significant
role. The summer school is jointly sponsored by the University of California
at Berkeley, Stanford University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory,
and the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory. Lectures will be presented
by professors and scientists from these four organizations and their user
communities. This first summer school will be housed at U.C. Berkeley’s
Clark Kerr campus. Co-chairs for this first summer school are David Attwood
(attwood@eecs.berkeley.edu)
and Anders Nilsson (nilsson@ssrl.slac.stanford.edu).
Cost
of attendance will be $595 for the one-week course (Sunday afternoon through
Saturday morning), including lectures, shared room, meals, and local transportation
from the lecture site to the two synchrotron radiation facilities. Applications
should include a brief academic record, a statement describing the intended
research area and how a knowledge of synchrotron radiation would enhance
those studies, a list of publications (if any), and information on how
to reach the applicant by email and phone through the period extending
to the time of the summer school. Applications can be sent electronically
to: Course6@unx.berkeley.edu,
or by mail to: Jenny Black Deer/Joan Shao, Berkeley-Stanford Summer School,
University of CaliforniaExtension,
1995 University Avenue, MC 7010, Berkeley, CA 94720-7010.
