Hiden Analytical is currently at the 39th Annual Meeting of the Japan Society for Synchrotron Radiation Science Joint Symposium (JSSR2026). Representing us are our Japanese agents Yoshiaki Watanabe & Hayato Tanaka, who will be on hand at the event taking place 7-9 January, 2026 at the Tohoku University Centennial Hall Kawauchi Hagi Hall and Sendai International Centre Exhibition Hall in Tokyo, Japan.
The annual scientific conference, held jointly with the Synchrotron Radiation Science Symposium, brings together researchers, engineers, and industry participants working in synchrotron radiation research and related technologies, and provides a platform for presenting recent scientific developments, discussing new methods and applications of synchrotron radiation.
Program Highlights:
Plenary and Invited Lectures on Synchrotron Source and Beamline Developments
In-depth presentations covering advances in accelerator physics, insertion devices, high-brightness and coherent X-ray sources, and next-generation synchrotron facility concepts.Specialised Sessions on Beamline Instrumentation, Optics, and Detector Technologies
Technical discussions on monochromators, X-ray optics, ultrafast pump–probe systems, and high-performance detector architectures for time-resolved and high-resolution measurements.Synchrotron-Based Spectroscopy, Scattering, and Imaging Applications
Research contributions highlighting techniques such as ARPES, resonant and non-resonant X-ray scattering, coherent diffraction imaging, and operando/in situ analysis for materials and surface science.Poster Sessions and User Presentations on Advanced Analytical Methodologies
Broad coverage of experimental results from structural, electronic, and chemical characterisation studies conducted at synchrotron beamlines across diverse scientific disciplines.Industry Exhibition, Facility Updates, and Technical Workshops
Exhibits and workshops showcasing state-of-the-art scientific instrumentation, beamline technologies, vacuum and diagnostics solutions, alongside updates on facility upgrades, user programs, and beamline commissioning.
Relevance of Hiden Analytical’s Technology to Synchrotron Research:
Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry for UHV Diagnostics
Design and manufacture of quadrupole mass spectrometers and residual gas analysers optimised for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environments, supporting continuous vacuum diagnostics essential for stable electron storage ring operation and beamline performance.Residual Gas Analysis for Contamination and Leak Detection
High-sensitivity measurement of gas species composition and partial pressures within vacuum chambers, enabling identification of contaminants, virtual leaks, outgassing phenomena, and vacuum degradation that directly impact beam lifetime and photon stability.Radiation-Resistant RGA Architectures for Synchrotron Facilities
Deployment of radiation-tolerant RGAs (e.g. HAL 101 X) engineered for installation in high-radiation zones near storage rings and beamlines, with remote electronics configurations to maintain measurement accuracy, reliability, and long-term operational stability.
