Summary:
A groundbreaking superconducting X-ray spectrometer has begun operation at BESSY II,
giving Europe its first TES-based system and boosting photon detection efficiency by up to 1,000 times.
The advance enables scientists to explore atomically thin materials, nanostructures,
and ultra-dilute samples with remarkable speed and sensitivity.
