Abstract
Manuel Cardona left the University of Barcelona before I arrived there to study Physics, so I had never met him before he came to the University of Madrid, at the end of the 60s, while I was working as a professor in it. He came to give a seminar which I attended just to learn something, since solid state physics was not my speciality. I do not remember the exact subject of the seminar but I remember quite well that he told about an experiment done at DESY (which was well known to me) using “synchrotron radiation”.
