P65 - EXAFS Beamline

P65 is dedicated to the majority of EXAFS experiments which do not require extremely high brilliance, photon flux or beamsizes below 1 mm2. This includes most operando experiments on catalysts, material sciences and geo- and environmental chemistry. The energy range covers 4 keV - 44 keV.
