MAX IV Laboratory is a national synchrotron laboratory for research performed usingn X-rays. MAX IV Laboratory has operated successfully for more than 30 years and is currently commissioning and operating the new MAX IV synchrotron facility in Lund.


Up to 3 000 scientists from Sweden and the rest of the world will come to the MAX IV Laboratory every year to use the x-rays and do research in areas such as physics, chemistry, geology, engineering, medicine, materials science, structural biology and nanotechnology.

The MAX IV facility, the largest and most ambitious Swedish investment in research infrastructure, is the most advanced source of x-rays worldwide replacing the former MAX-lab. 
Some 240 people are currently employed at the MAX IV Laboratory and we will welcome many skilled and curious persons to our staff during the coming years. MAX IV Laboratory is located in Lund, Sweden.
