The kangaroo route

That's right folks, I've been home less than a fortnight and in 12 days' time I'm off again back to Melbourne for the next round of beamtime. The time was only scheduled 5 days ago which has not given me a lot of time to arrange everything... this time it will be measuring anomalous diffraction of Bi-2212 superconductors, and then looking at the formation of Pd (and/or Pd-hydride) nanoparticles in solution, in situ.
No more technical stuff, I promise. At least for this post...

Both experiments have been scheduled over two consecutive weekends. It works out more cost-effective to stay over there than to return to NZ in between. So I may be able to spend a bit of time catching up with friends...
