7th International Workshop on Infrared Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Accelerator Based Sources - 10 Nov 2013

10 - 14 November 2013, VIC

As host of the 7th International Workshop on Infrared Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Accelerator Based Sources, WIRMS, the Australian Synchrotron is pleased to invite you to join infrared (IR) scientists from Australia and around the globe for what promises to be a stimulating event at the Mantra Erskine Resort, Lorne, on the Great Ocean Road, from 10th to 14th November 2013.

In tradition with previous WIRMS conferences, we expect to be joined by staff and users from many of the Synchrotron (SR) and Free Electron Laser (FEL) IR beamlines around the world, along with many scientists from the Australian Synchrotron user community. WIRMS 2013 will provide a great opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with IR scientists from a range of scientific fields.

The conference programme will appeal to worldwide audiences involved in driving research and instrumentation development in the field of vibrational spectroscopy with accelerator based sources. WIRMS 2013 will host a number of Internationally renowned invited speakers covering a diverse range of topics.

The programme will include topics such as:

• Infrared Microspectroscopy
• Sub-diffraction Imaging
• Cultural Heritage Applications
• Atmospheric & Astrophysical Sciences
• Facility Developments
• Far-IR and THz spectroscopy
• Condensed Matter
• Extreme Conditions
• Surface Science
• Coherent Synchrotron Radiation & Free Electron Laser
• Environmental Science and Renewable Energy

The conference will also welcome delegates to attend a number of exciting social functions designed to entertain and facilitate networking of WIRMS 2013 attendees.
