HPSTAR members at the 2016 IUCr High Pressure Workshop

The 2016 IUCr (International Union of CRYSTALLOGRAPHY) high pressure workshop followed last year’s successful workshop at the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory, Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) and Korean Synchrotron Users Association (KOSUA) proudly host the IUCr High Pressure Workshop at the sole synchrotron facility in Korea. PAL is the third-generation light source established in the city of Pohang in 1995 and currently operates 31 beamlines. Especially this year, PAL is launching the fourth-generation PAL-XFEL and looking forward to extending its scientific capability to include high-pressure and extreme conditions science. This year’s IUCr High Pressure Workshop enjoyed vigorous science and culture of Korea.

The IUCr is an International Scientific Union. Its objectives are to promote international cooperation in crystallography and to contribute to all aspects of crystallography, to promote international publication of crystallographic research, to facilitate standardization of methods, units, nomenclatures and symbols, and to form a focus for the relations of crystallography to other sciences.
