Courses like this one are important for our reserachers and to the whole scientific community who would like to collaborate and make use of the ALBA Synchrotron beamlines for their research. As we have this great infrastructure near us, it is important to know what it can offer us and how can we improve our research with it. 

Country of the participants institution

The course was thought for beginners in ARPES, and managed to, in 4 lectures by Kyle Shen, and with the hands-on at the LOREA beamline with Massimo Tallarida, bring the participants to the next level. It aimed to provide attendants with the essentials for the understanding of this technique and its implementation to observe the electronic band structure of solids and molecules.
