ISSRNS 2022 General Information
Polish Synchrotron Radiation Society - PSRS (www.synchrotron.org.pl) has been organizing this International School and Symposium on Synchrotron Radiation since 1991. The aim of our interdisciplinary meeting is to bring together scientists and students working with synchrotron radiation. ISSRNS is a traditional forum for discussing fundamental issues of application of the synchrotron radiation and related methods in natural sciences. The goal of this interdisciplinary Symposium is to bring together users (scientists and graduate students) of synchrotron radiation. The meeting will focus on novel applications of synchrotron radiation in physics, chemistry, material and life sciences.
The 15th International School and Symposium on Synchrotron Radiation in Natural Science (ISSRNS’2022) will be held in Przegorzały (near Krakow), Poland, 22-25 August 2022.
The programme of the Symposium will comprise invited lectures (40 minutes), oral presentations (20 minutes), short contributions (10 min), and poster presentations. The short contributions are only aimed at the students allowing them to present their research results. The abstracts of all presentations presented on ISSRNS will be published in a Book of Abstracts, and the proceedings in a reputable international journal. The official language of the meeting is English.
Proceedings of the Conference will be published in Nuclear Instruments and Methods B.
