DESCRIPTION:**50 Years of XAFS Adventure in France: From the Pioneers of LU
 RE to 4th-Generation Sources**\n\nThe **XAFS50.FR** conference will take
  place at **SOLEIL** from **October 5 to 9\, 2026.**\n\nHow can we obse
 rve the environment around atoms ? Over the past 50 years\, XAFS (X-ray Ab
 sorption Fine Structure) spectroscopy has attracted researchers from every
  field thanks to its atomic and orbital selectivity combined with high sen
 sitivity\, offering unique access to the structural and electronic propert
 ies of materials.\n\nDeveloped in parallel with major advances in synchrot
 ron radiation\, XAFS has established itself step by step\, becoming an ess
 ential tool for many scientific communities as well as for industry\, and 
 is now even beginning to appear as a laboratory-based technique with comme
 rcial spectrometers.\n\nThe XAFS50.FR event will bring together historica
 l insight and scientific perspectives\, highlighting the pioneering experi
 ments carried out at LURE (ACO\, DCI\, Super-ACO)\, the development of for
 malisms and the standardization of analyses\, and the current progress at 
 SOLEIL and the 4th generation source ESRF-EBS — a development that SOLE
 IL-II will soon join.
