LEAPS Members

Fifteen organisations operating eighteen accelerator-based photon facilities, i.e., high-brilliance synchrotron radiation facilities and free electron lasers, are united in LEAPS. They provide unique analytical tools for exploration of the atomic and electronic structure and processes in materials and biological systems. Today they serve more than 35,000 academic and industrial researchers with over 1 million hours of access per year across all scientific disciplines ranging from materials, biochemistry, catalysis, geoscience and planetary research to paleontology and cultural heritage.
