    Significant progress in accelerator design, X-ray optics, detection technology, and Information Technology drives worldwide the evolution of synchrotron light sources to the 4th generation, opening new windows to the exploration of inner details of matter, devices, and their functionality. The ALBA II project, initiated in 2021, will transform ALBA into a 4$^t{^h}$ generation light source, to...

    ALBA is working on the upgrade project that shall transform the actual storage ring, in operation since 2012, into a $4{^t{^h}}$ generation light source, in which the soft X-rays part of the spectrum shall be diffraction limited. The project has been officially launched in 2021 and a White Paper presenting the main concepts of the upgrade shall be published in 2022. The storage ring upgrade...

    Within the Complementary Plans Program in Advanced Materials, a correlative facility for in-situ experiments directly linked to the ALBA Synchrotron will be soon launched launched in Catalonia. Its aim is to enable correlative in-situ (S)TEM, AFM/STM and Synchrotron Radiation (SR) experiments to address some of the scientific challenges of the European Green Deal plan, and thus promote a more...

    ALBA II is a unique opportunity to create together with you a facility which is fit for the research and development needs of the first half of the 21th century. Well aware of the broad base of ALBA’s user community, we used three focus areas, health, energy, and information technology, to analyze the challenges laying ahead of us, to identify the characterization needs, and ultimately develop...
