Water is key to life on our planet and plays a central role in a large number of environmental and technological processes starting from the complex aqueous contents of cells, to clouds in the atmosphere and aqueous catalytic cycles in industry.
In 2022, the European XFEL had launched a Call for proposals in molecular water research with the goal to combine its unique X-ray infrastructure with the expertise of European and international partners in water related sciences. EuXFEL will now open a second call for User Experiments on Molecular Water Research for the allocation period 2025-I. The scope of this call will be extended and include now work on water solutions, energy/water splitting, environmental and climate research.
This workshop shall report on the scientific outcome of the first call, present an overview on open questions and ongoing activities in the field by international experts and bring together interested users for the second call to share information, discuss joint research projects and form collaborations for the second call.
