ALBA Synchrotron achieves with this agreement with Henkel one of his main targets: collaboration with industry based on research and development at the highest scientific and technological level. Henkel is the first company signing a R&D collaboration agreement with ALBA regarding industrial applications of synchrotron techniques. With this agreement Henkel reinforces its already proved capacity on R&D and decides to support the ALBA Synchrotron capacities.
On January, CERN and ALBA have signed two collaboration agreements.
ALBA, the Spanish Synchrotron Radiation Facility, held on past 15th of December its first Open Day. More than 1000 visitors mostly coming from Barcelona and the sorroundings neighbouring, arrived to the laboratory, on a sunny Mediterranean Winter day, and many hundreds more had to be postponed for the next events.
