Description
Synchrotron radiation serves as a potent instrument for elucidating the structural and electronic characteristics of matter. Elettra, the Italian Synchrotron radiation laboratory, has a longstanding history of collaboration with Indian scientists. Presently, the Indian research community constitutes the second-largest community at Elettra, following the Italian one. Two of the instruments (beamlines) installed at Elettra are co-financed by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) through the Indian Institute of Science (IISc). As Elettra undergoes a significant upgrade, new avenues for the Indian community are anticipated in the forthcoming years.
