Welcome to Elettra Crowd!

In these difficult times of the second coronavirus outbreak, we continue to be operational adapting to the safety regulations. We actively contributed to the EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF-2020) in Trieste, involving 52 countries mostly in virtual participation! In the meantime, a number of exciting results have been published from our community, showed by the links here below. You can also view the video presentation on how to use WayForLight, the single access point and database for synchrotrons.
We are looking forward to the virus-free days to enjoy doing together successful experiments here at Elettra !

Research Highlights

	Observation of flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene Nano-ARPES was used to demonstrate that the twist between two layers of graphene cause the formation of electron pairs, which is the ingredient for superconductivity. Nature Physics (2020) doi:   10.1038/s41567-020-01041-x Read more...
	Tracking the ultrafast ring opening in thiophenone The break-up of the heterocyclic molecule was investigated in the range of tens of femtoseconds using the time-resolved extreme ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy technique available at the FERMI free electron laser. Nature Chemistry 12, 795 (2020) Read more...
	Electron and X‑ray Focused Beam-Induced Cross-Linking in Liquids The beam writing has been done at the ESCAMicroscopy beamline through the thin electron/X-ray transparent membrane separating high-vacuum equipment from a volatile precursor solution. ACS Nano  (2020) doi: 10.1021/acsnano.0c04266 Read more...
	Ultrafast demagnetization limits the amount of light diffracted from magnetic samples. The dependence of the resonant magnetic scattering intensity as a function of the x-ray intensity, changed over three orders of magnitude in fluence, has been detected with unprecedented precision.
