DESCRIPTION:\n\n \n\nWe are pleased to invite you to an upcoming LINXS an
 d MAX IV Roadmap workshop\, to discuss X-ray microscopy with elemental and
  chemical contrast in the tender and hard X-ray regimes. The workshop is p
 rompted by the growing research needs and interests of Swedish and interna
 tional researchers in X-ray spectro-microscopy and is a science-driven res
 ponse to the ongoing strategy process at MAX IV (link below).\n\nThe first
  years of operation at the NanoMAX and Balder beamlines have shown that a 
 new X-ray spectral microscope with micrometer resolution\, accommodating s
 pecimens up to the centimeter scale\, would find broad use for research in
  Sweden and beyond. Therefore\, a highly preliminary proposal for such an 
 instrument has been developed. Initial discussions have revealed a wide in
 terest from scientists in fields as diverse as geology\, biology\, materia
 ls science\, environmental science\, archaeology\, conservation\, and othe
 rs. We welcome and encourage your input on how the envisioned instrument m
 ight benefit your research\, and on what capabilities should be considered
  for a future beamline proposal.\n\nThe aim of the workshop is two-fold. F
 irst\, to bring together a community of researchers from Swedish and inter
 national universities and institutes\, industry and synchrotrons to develo
 p and discuss the needs and science case for the proposed beamline. Second
 ly\, to create a platform for submitting a formal Expression of Interest\,
  due in November as part of the ongoing MAX IV science-driven and open Roa
 dmap process\, and establishing how such an initiative should be organized
 .\n\nFor more information on the MAX IV Strategy and Roadmap\, please visi
