W ith recent advances in machine learning technology, data-driven research is beginning to permeate natural science and engineering fields. Synchrotron radiation science is also expected to benefit significantly from machine learning. The progress of these studies will make it possible to observe materials that could not be observed in the past or to perform synchrotron radiation measurements and detailed data analysis much more efficiently than before, leading to more effective use of limited beamtime. In addition, machine learning has the potential to bring about advanced and more efficient research through software without the need for major hardware upgrades at synchrotron radiation facilities. The encounter between machine learning and materials science has opened up a new academic field called materials informatics. Especially in the last decades, the progress has been remarkable, and the concept of informatics has been incorporated into all areas of materials science, from material design and material synthesis to measurement and analysis. The rise of materials informatics was due to advances in information science in terms of both hardware and software; namely, the dramatic development of computing power and artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning, which have made it possible to handle large volumes of complex data that were difficult to handle in the past. In addition, it is now possible to extract useful information and new knowledge from the data, bringing about changes in various fields. Furthermore, machine learning technology has become much easier than in the past, thanks not only to simple programming languages such as Python but also to open source platforms on which an ecosystem for data analysis has been built. Taking synchrotron radiation experiments as an example, the measurement space to be explored in experiments is extremely wide. In order to extract knowledge from complex data analysis, it is necessary to efficiently search a high-dimensional search space consisting of an enormous number of parameters to find the optimal solution. Parameter search in such a highdimensional space, which skilled experts conventionally conduct based on tacit knowledge such as intuition and experience, poses problems such as bottlenecks to automation, human bias, and poor reproducibility, and requires a new research methodology that will fundamentally change conventional research methods. The wide range of new developments in the combination of synchrotron radiation and machine learning discussed in this special issue will extend synchrotron radiation experiments to more advanced measurements, bring about more efficient and automated synchrotron radiation experiments, and increase the amount of information obtained from these experiments. We hope these efforts will contribute significantly to further developing and revitalizing the synchrotron radiation community and opening up new research fields. n Kanta Ono Guest Edit

After 50 years of effort, near-ambient or ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS or APXPS) has become a useful tool for studying gas and liquid molecules in environmental science The developments of new-generation synchrotron radiation in recent decades—e.g., more brilliant light, tighter spot size, and well-controlled polarization—have further improved the quality of APXPS studies and enabled their applications in various fields, especially in ca-talysis and material science. Currently, there are more than 20 APXPS endstations built in synchrotron radiation facilities worldwide. In the near future, some APXPS endstations will be upgraded or have been proposed for upgrades, while a few new ones are under construction. This success of APXPS is realized not by the sole improvement of instrumentation, but also through interactions between the desire to explore new scientific phenomena and advanced techniques. Tender X-ray APXPS is a good example of how scientific desire to study the electrochemical liquid-solid interfaces has driven the development of experimental tools.

BElChem focuses on providing a molecular-level description of (photo)electrochemical interfaces that are of high relevance for solar fuel production and renewable energy storage. The CO 2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are of particular current interest. In BElChem, near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) and near-ambient pressure hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-HAXPES) will be used for the in-situ and operando interrogation of the electronic structure and chemical composition of catalytically active solid/gas and solid/liquid interfaces. BElChem will also enable heterogeneous catalytic reactions, such as oxidation and hydrogenation reactions, to be investigated. The BElChem facility consists of two beamlines with two endstations in two separate hutches and an additional sample preparation/ chemical lab. One beamline, the undulator beamline U49/2 PGM (plane grating monochromator), covers the soft X-ray energy range, whereas the other dipole magnet sourced beamline, BElChem-DCM, with a double crystal monochromator (DCM), covers the tender X-ray energy range. Combined, the BElChem beamlines cover a photon energy range nominally from 90 eV to 10 keV. Each endstation has its own electron spectrometer. The endstation frame is composed of two separate parts. On one part, the electron spectrometer is mounted and, on the other, the analysis chamber is mounted. This allows the easy exchange of experimental modules and the ability for users of BElChem to provide tailor-made modules targeting the sample environment relevant for their in-situ or operando measurement. The BElChem facility provides the opportunity to study electrochemical interfaces with two general approaches. Due to the high surface sensitivity and short mean free paths of low kinetic energy photoelectrons generated with soft X-rays, a suitable method to explore the electrode/electrolyte interface with XPS during a (photo)electrochemical reaction is needed.

Introduction Studying energy materials under realistic operating conditions is necessary to reveal chemical and electronic properties as well as fundamental processes that determine the functional properties of the materials. This has been the driving force for the development of various in-situ and operando experimental techniques. Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS) has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for the in-situ investigation of the surfaces and interfaces of such energy materials, on which the critical surface processes and reactions occur, thanks to its inherent surface sensitivity, elemental specificity, and sensitivity to different chemical environments. The ability to perform AP-XPS experiments at pressures ranging from the typical tens of millibars to a few bars [1] has enabled scientists to close the so-called “pressure gap” between real industrial processes and surface science experiments typically performed under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions. As a result, AP-XPS instruments have proliferated around the world in the past two decades, starting at synchrotron light sources, followed by lab-based instruments [2]. As one of the newest and brightest synchrotron light sources in the world, the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office Of Science user facility located at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), offers new and exciting opportunities for energy research using in-situ and operando X-ray techniques, including AP-XPS [3]. The In situ and Operando Soft Xray Spectroscopy beamline (IOS, 23-ID-2) [4], formerly called CSX2, was part of the first group of beamlines to open to general users at NSLS-II, where the AP-XPS user program has been thriving since 2016. In this technical report, we present a description of the current state of the IOS beamline and AP-XPS endstation, examples of recent scientific highlights, as well as an overview of future developments.
