Workshop #4 at the NSLS Users' Meeting

Spectroscopic Studies of Nanoscaled Systems

Location: Bldg. 463, Biology, Large Seminar Room

Date: Wednesday, May 25, 2005

Organizers:
Peter Abbamonte (BNL, NSLS) (abbamonte@bnl.gov) 
Peter Johnson (BNL, Physics) (pdj@bnl.gov) 

Description: This workshop will focus on many-body phenomena with nanoscale dimensions, including the effects of electron interactions in mesoscopic systems (such as quantum wires and dots) and nanoscale inhomogeneity induced by interactions in extended sytems (such as transition metal oxides). The emphasis will be on phenomena which either have been or can be studied with synchrotron-based spectroscopy techniques, such as angle-resolved photoemission, x-ray absorption, or resonant x-ray scattering.
