Conference presentations
WCUS members have been presenting our recent work at a few conferences so far this year.
Connor Mosley will be talking at this year's in Los Angeles about our recent work on hysteresis and spin disorder in the magnetically-induced multiferroic CuO.
James Lloyd-Hughes gave an invited talk at the Max Planck Society's "" research school's annual workshop in Schloss Ringberg, Bavaria. This was an excellent meeting - thanks to the organisers!
James also gave an invited talk at the at the University of Chester - thanks to Dr Bin Yang for the invitation and the exciting day of talks.

IR beamline aces reproducibility
The IR beamline has been undergoing rigourous refining and further testing and has beautifully reproduced data from published results. See the results gallery to view this new exciting data of N-methyl pyridone in ACN excited at 267 nm.
