Free-electron lasers for short-wavelength radiation are a new light source providing extremely high brilliance radiation. These light sources, like FLASH at DESY, allow to apply new experimental techniques for short-wavelength radiation, therefore enabling new science to be investigated.
It is the aim of the research courses to provide young and future researchers with the fundamental knowledge about new methods of X-ray research, in order they can establish themselves in this field and can contribute to develop a wide area of scientific application of X-ray FEL research, similar to what has very successfully happened in synchrotron radiation research. The courses address students in their final terms, diploma/master students, PhD students and young research fellows after the PhD. The structure of the courses is such that the lectures shall provide fundamental information about the different facets of the topic of the corresponding course. Both, experimental techniques and scientific applications of these techniques shall be discussed. From the lecture the student shall be able to understand the basics, to estimate experimental observables and to deviate results and conclusions of experiments. The courses will be rather compact with only few lectures per day over typical three days.
