MaTeRiA Labs organized in three progressive levels
First level. STAR (Southern Europe Thomson Back-Scattering Source
for Applied Research) equipped with the beam-line µTomo.
Second level laboratories:
1. Preparation and characterization
2. Characterization of the mechanical and physical properties
3. Modeling and simulation
4. Prototyping
5. Advanced spectroscopy
Third level. Network of existent UniCal departmental laboratories
Thomson back-scattering X-ray source
Examples of various X-ray beams in Phase 1
STAR – The Electron Machine
(65 MeV, upgrade to 100 MeV)
