Workshops & trainings
RMSKempten offers courses and training for users of X-ray diffraction with the following contents:
Fundamentals of X-ray Powder Diffraction
This course is offered to relative newcomers and to experienced users who want to heighten their knowledge of the fundamental principles and established procedures. The participant will become familiar with the basics of single and multi phase analysis and practices with many analysis files to handle the modern analysis methods.
