"Using X-rays to Analyze Cultural Heritage".

The participants will learn about the latest research on the use of
synchrotrons to analyze cultural heritage, obtain hands-on
experience with the examination and treatment of synchrotron derived
data as taught by SSRL staff scientists, and have a tour of the SSRL
facility with a particular emphasis on the imaging microscopes at
beamlines 2-3, 10-2, and 14-3.

The workshop will bring students and other interested researchers
from a variety of disciplines (engineering, art history, and
archaeology) in contact with the leading scientists working in the
field of synchrotron analysis of cultural heritage. Please refer to
