ALBA's 270-meter perimeter has 17 straight sections all of which are available for the installation of insertion devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ALBA currently has&nbsp;<strong>ten state-of-the-art operational beamlines<\/strong>, comprising soft and hard X-rays, which are devoted mainly to&nbsp;<strong>biosciences<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>condensed matter<\/strong>&nbsp;(magnetic and electronic properties, nanoscience), and&nbsp;<strong>materials science<\/strong>. Additionally, four beamlines are in construction (low-energy ultra-high-resolution angular photoemission for complex materials, microfocus for macromolecular crystallography, absorption and diffraction, and fast X-ray tomography &amp; radioscopy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This large scientific infrastructure provides more than&nbsp;<strong>6.000 hours of beam time per year<\/strong>&nbsp;and is available for&nbsp;<strong>the academic and industrial sector,<\/strong>&nbsp;serving more than 2.000 researchers every year. Since as early as 2012, ALBA has been hosting official users, 65% from Spanish institutions and 35% from other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"498\" height=\"216\" src=\"https:\/\/rinconeducativo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Alba_Sincrotron.jpg\" alt=\"Sincrotr\u00f3n Alba\" class=\"wp-image-21455\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">ALBA Synchrotron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ALBA Synchrotron organizes&nbsp;<strong>free guided tours<\/strong>&nbsp;where participants can discover what a synchrotron light source is and the applications of its different beamlines and equipment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Profile: The visits are aimed exclusively at <strong>school groups (4th ESO, 1st and 2nd Baccalaureate), university groups, vocational training, and researchers, as well as professional and cultural institutions and associations.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If you do not belong to any of these groups, you can visit the installation in the ALBA OPEN DAY.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Duration: 1,15 hours<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To book a visit has required a minimum of 15 people and a maximum of 30 participants.
