Specialists in the technical components of a synchrotron light source are usually well versed in their field and in the associated technical literature. However, with the rapid and continuing growth of synchrotron radiation research, and with new facilities coming online and being authorized for design and construction around the world, there is a need for a reference book that describes the various technical components of a synchrotron light source in a manner that will be useful to those who lack specialized technical background, but who have responsibility for some part of the design, construction, operation or development of such a facility. This would include technicians, engineers and ...
Soft X-rays are a powerful probe of matter. They interact selectively with electrons in atoms and molecules and can be used to study atomic physics, chemical reactions, surfaces and solids, and biological entities. Over the past 20 years, synchrotrons have emerged as powerful sources of soft X-rays for experimental use. A new, third generation of synchrotron light sources is scheduled to start operation over the next few years, beginning in 1993. These facilities are distinguished by their ultra-low emittance electron beams and by their undulators -- precisely engineered magnetic devices that cause the electrons passing through them to produce highly coherent X-rays and ultraviolet light of ...
This book is intended to dispel the notion that collective phenomena are an obscure and inaccessible topic. Having become increasingly important in modern storage rings, collective e?ects deserve to become part of the general education in accelerator physics. ItriedtowritethebookIwaslookingforwhenIstartedtostudycollective instabilities: an introduction that can be read from cover to cover with m- erate e?ort and familiarizes the reader with the basic concepts. Self-contained appendices contain what I considered worth discussing but might impair the readability of the main text, such as a reminder of basic relations and some background information on selected topics. Finally, an extensive lis...
This book covers a new niche in circular accelerator design, motivated by the promising industrial prospects of recent micromanufacturing methods ? X-ray lithography, synchrotron radiation-based micromachining and microanalysis techniques. It describes the basic concepts and the essential challenges for the development of compact synchrotron radiation sources from an accelerator designer's point of view and gives an outline of the actual state of the art. The volume is intended as an introduction and as a reference for physicists, engineers and managers involved in this rapidly developing field.
Endlich ein Fachbuch mit detaillierten Informationen zu einer der fortschrittlichsten Methoden zur Materialcharakterisierung. Ein herausragendes Team aus Herausgebern und Autoren von renommierten Einrichtungen und Institutionen beschäftigt sich mit Synchrotron-Verfahren, die sich in der Materialforschung bewährt haben. Nach einer Einführung in die Synchrotronstrahlung und ihrer Quellen werden die verschiedenen Techniken beschrieben, die von diesem besonders hellen Licht profitieren, u. a. Röntgenabsorption, Diffraktion, Streuung, Bildgebung und Lithographie. Zum Schluss folgt ein Überblick über die Anwendungen der Synchrotronstrahlung in den Materialwissenschaften. Dieses einzigartige, unabdingbare Referenzwerk für akademische Forscher und Forscher aus der Industrie verbindet Spezialisten aus der Synchrotronforschung und Materialwissenschaftler.
Synchrotron radiation facilities embrace an unusually wide range of scientific and technical skills, including high brilliance electron accelerator technology, ultra high vacuum precision engineering, and beamline optical engineering. With individual contributions from specialists in each area, Synchrotron Radiation Sources and Applications comprehensively covers various topics, from the basic theory of synchrotron radiation to its uses as an experimental tool in atomic, molecular, and solid-state physics.
As a result of the exponential growth of the utilization of synchrotron radiation for research in the domain of the material sciences, atomic and molecular physics, biology and technology, a major construction activity has been generated towards new dedicated electron storage rings, designed optimally for synchrotron radiation applications, also, expansion programs are underway at the existing facilities, such as DORIS, SPEAR, and VEPP. In this report the basic properties of synchrotron radiation will be discussed, a short overview will be given of the existing and new facilities, some aspects of the optimization of a structure for a synchrotron radiation source will be discussed and the addition of wigglers and undulators for spectrum enhancement will be described. Finally, some parameters of an optimized synchrotron radiation source will be given.
