Advanced Infrastructure example

ForMAX

  • A beamline at MAX IV, Lund, for characterization of forest materials
  • Will be finished year 2022
  • Creation of a ForMAX-portal available from Treesearch which also includes

access to other beamlines at MAX IV

  • ForMAX is sponsored by a 100 MSEK investment by the Knut and Alice

Wallenberg Foundation. Treesearch will cover the operating cost
