On 26 August 2024 to the main auditorium (bldg. 5) at DESY Hamburg we celebrate 60 years of synchrotron light at DESY. We are excited that so many people, some of them from abroad, want to be part of our 60th anniversary celebrations.
If you still have pictures from 60 years of synchrotron research or other memorabilia from your time at DESY, you can either send them by e-mail to sr60@desy.de or upload them to our cloud SR60@DESY.
We might include them in our event. There will also be a guest book on display, which we kindly ask you to contribute to.
Yours sincerely
Edgar Weckert and Robert Feidenhans‘l
