The update increases the photon flux by up to seven times and allows the exploration of phenomena previously inaccessible with the RIXS technique The Ipê beamline at Sirius — the…
A study conducted by researchers from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) and featured on the back cover of the Journal of Materials Chemistry A investigated a possible solution for hydrogen storage based on porous metallic nanostructures, called nanofoams. Part of the analysis was performed at the Carnaúba beamline of Sirius, whose spatial…
Updates to the submission form and evaluation process aim to make project assessment more agile and transparent The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM), an organization supervised by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), announces the opening of the seventh regular call for research proposals at Sirius, the fourth-generation synchrotron light source operated by the National Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS). Researchers interested in carryingout experiments at the ten Sirius beamlines available in this call may submit proposals from February 10 to March 8 through…
Leading global meeting of the X-ray microscopy community will take place from August 30 to September 4 at CNPEM The International Conference on X-ray Microscopy (XRM), a biennial event that…
Designed to achieve resolutions on the order of 1 nanometer, the Sapoti station of the Carnaúba beamline combines cryogenics, ultra-high vacuum, and cutting-edge mechatronics engineering to reveal structures at the…
Of the 375 projects submitted, 119 were selected for development in the first half of 2026 on the Sirius beamlines The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM),…
Measurements obtained using several beamlines at Sirius provided strong evidence to classify fossil specimens of Spongiophyton nanum as a lichen, suggesting that these organisms strongly influenced the evolution of life…
