Welcome to the 2nd SXSO-DLSR -- the second workshop on soft X-ray science opportunities using diffraction-limited storage rings (DLSR). This workshop is organized by National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (NSRL). It will be hosted in the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), Hefei, P. R. China, in August 17-19, 2016.

The main topics will be the prospective revolutionary new accelerator technologies for DLSR, and the related transformational soft X-ray characterization tools in the soft X-ray band to pursue the emergent science and technology opportunities.
