MOST Home page
The Molecular and Optical Science and Technology beamline (MOST) is the only one dedicated to research on Low Density Systems at Elettra 2.0. It is primarily characterized by its ability to provide a beam of synchrotron radiation with variable polarization over a very wide range of photon energies (8-2200 eV) from two elliptically polarized undulators. |

The broad energy range, the high resolving power and flux together with the purpose-built end-stations, make this facility ideal for investigating the spectroscopy and dynamics of basic processes like inner-shell and multiple excitations and ionization, as well as dichroic spectroscopies, for characterizing key processes relevant to several areas of science and technology (for example atmospheric chemistry, material science and biomedical sciences).
MOST stems from the amalgamation of the GasPhase Photoemission and CiPo beamlines

User Area
Proposal SumissionWe invite users and collaborators to discuss their proposals with the beamline local contacts well in advance before the submission deadline. This is crucial for a careful assesment of the experiment feasibility and may lead to improvements in the proposed experimental plan. Our website provides a wealth of informaiton on experiment feasibilty and proposal submission. For more info, please vist the user info section. However, MOST@CiPo is presently closed to external users. See you @Elettra 2.0 ! |
Call for proposalsThe submission of proposals for the Elettra beamlines is suspended until Elettra 2.0 is commissioned. |
