ArrowMagnet Lab User Summer School

NEXT SESSION: SPRING 2013

PAST SESSION: SPRING 2012

If you are an advanced graduate student, postdoctoral associate or early career investigator looking to gain practical measurement experience, the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory User Summer School will help you develop skills you can use in your home laboratory and in user facilities worldwide.

MagLab User Summer School is designed to provide a “technique toolkit ” to early career scientists that includes:

  • Noise types and theory; noise suppression techniques
  • Transport techniques
  • Magnetometry: AC, torque, vibrating sample magnetometer, SQUID
  • User Summer School student Camilla Moir high-fives a fellow student. Camilla Moir high-fives a fellow student during an exercise at the 2012 User Summer School.
  • Heat capacity measurements
  • Magneto-optics
  • Infrared and terahertz spectroscopy
  • Ultrasound spectroscopy
  • High-pressure methods
  • NMR techniques for chemistry, biology and condensed matter
  • Electron paramagnetic resonance (electron spin resonance)
  • Cryogenic techniques
  • Measurements at ultra-low temperatures
  • The nuts and bolts of data acquisition

The weeklong summer school features tutorials on measurement techniques, practical exercises and plenary talks from experts in the field of condensed matter physics.

Housing and transportation around town is provided. The registration fee covers most meals Monday through Friday. The registration fee does not cover travel to or from Tallahasssee, travel to or from the airport, or miscellaneous expenses.
