International Workshop for New Opportunities in Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy: HAXPES 2009.

The third international workshop on hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES 2009) was held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, New York, from May 20-22, 2009. This three-day workshop brought together approximately 100 scientists from 14 countries to discuss progress and future prospects for this rapidly developing field of research. The conference was sponsored by the National Synchrotron Light Source, the National Synchrotron Light Source-II Project, Brookhaven National Laboratory Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science Department, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
