Their development has evolved from the first generation to the third generation in the past five decades, and has now entered into the fourth generation phase with even higher brightness and coherence radiation based on the diffraction limited storage ring concept. Currently, there are over 50 synchrotron light sources in operation in more than 20 countries, and over 15 new synchrotron radiation facilities have been set up worldwide in various stages of commissioning, construction, design, or planning. In this chapter, we will introduce the basics of synchrotron radiation generation, storage ring physics, and radiation characteristics, which are of interest to synchrotron radiation users. We will also present the current status of the storage ring light source development across the world. This chapter is intended to cover only the basic concepts of synchrotron light source and review the current status on its development. For readers who are interested in the detailed physics and related technologies, we recommend the books or monographs in Refs [1–15]. 1.2 Synchrotron Radiation Generation When a relativistic electron moves on a curved path at nearly the speed of light, it emits electromagnetic radiation. This radiation was theoretically predicated and studied by Lienard, Wiechert, and Schott in around 1900, and its visible part was first observed at the 70 MeV GE electron synchrotron in 1947. Since then, this electromagnetic radiation has been called synchrotron radiation. Synchrotron, a kind of circular particle accelerator, can accelerate charged par- ticles from low energy to high energy or keep the particles circulating on the Synchrotron Radiation in Materials Science: Light Sources, Techniques, and Applications, First Edition.

(Cambridge University Press.) circular orbit at a constant energy for hours and days, which is referred to as storage ring. The electron storage ring is the core part of synchrotron light source. Relativistic electrons, circulating in the storage ring, generate synchrotron radia- tion when passing through three on-path major source components: the bending magnet, wiggler, and undulator magnets, as shown in Figure 1.1. This synchrotron radiation is extremely intense over a broad range of wave- lengths from infrared through the visible and ultraviolet range, to the soft and hard X-ray part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Bending magnet radiation has broad spectrum and good photon flux; wiggler radiation provides higher photon energies and more photon flux; and undulator provides brighter radiation with smaller spot size and partial coherence. 1.2.1 Radiation from Bending Magnet A bending magnet, also called a dipole magnet, consists of opposite poles, namely the north and south poles, which are on opposite sides of the magnet providing a homogeneous magnetic field. As shown in Figure 1.2, when a relativistic electron of energy E travels on a circular trajectory in a dipole magnet of main field By = B and bending radius , where G = B = p/e, the ratio of momentum to charge, is often called the magnetic rigidity, it radiates electromagnetic power confined in a cone with ±1/ opening toward its moving direction.

Integrating the radiated power over an isomagnetic stor- age ring with constant gives an electron energy loss in one turn due to the synchrotron radiation as follows, 4 4 U = r m c23 . 0 3 0 0 In engineering units, E4[GeV] U [keV]=88.5 . 0 [m] For an electron beam traveling through a dipole magnet of bending angle Δ with average current of Ib, the radiated power is, 2 c44 P = r m c2 ΔI . d 3 0 0 e b For an electron beam circulating in storage ring (with average current of Ib and revolution time of T 0), the total radiated power per turn is, I U 4 4 P = b 0 = r m c23 I . 0 e 3 0 0 e b When an electron travels on the circular path in a dipole magnet, its emit- ting radiation on a fixed target outside the orbit circle comes only from a short arc of electron trajectory, this short synchrotron radiation pulse covers a wide continuous spectrum of photon energies from infrared to X-rays depending on the electron energy and the bending magnetic field. A so-called critical photon energy c (or critical frequency c) is defined as the photon energy which divides the synchrotron radiation into two spectral regions with equal radiated power, 3 3 = c , c 2 h 3hc 3 = = . c 2 c 4 In engineering units, 2 . c [keV]=0.665E [GeV]B[T] The significance of the critical photon energy is that it sets up the upper bund for the synchrotron radiation spectrum, and the spectral power falls rapidly for 4 1 Synchrotron Light Sources photon energies above this critical value.

They are installed in the storage ring straight sections and optimized for gener- ating specific synchrotron radiation characteristics. 1.2.2.1 Planar Undulator Radiation The radiation from planar undulator with N u period has the same physical pro- cess as a short bending magnet, but the N u times of oscillations that an elec- tron performs in an undulator transform the radiation into quasi-monochramatic 1∕2 with finite line width and within a cone of 1∕( Nu ). This makes the planar undu- lator radiation intensity effectively enhanced with reasonable radiation power (Figure 1.3). In a planar undulator with period length u and peak field B0, the main mag- netic field is By = B0 sin(2 s/ u), and the average instantaneous radiation power of an electron traveling in planar undulator is, ( ) 2 r cm c22K 2 2 = 0 0 , Pu 3 u where K is the so-called deflection parameter and is defined as, ecB K = 0 u . 2 2 m0c The total energy emitted by an electron from the undulator with a length of Lu = Nu u is, ( ) 2 r m c22K 2L 2 = 0 0 u .

  • Colliding a Linear Electron Beam with a Storage Ring Beam* ABSTRACT
    SLAC i PUB - 4545 February 1988 WA) Colliding a Linear Electron Beam with a Storage Ring Beam* P. GROSSE- WIESMANN Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305 ABSTRACT We investigate the possibility of colliding a linear accelerator electron beam with a particle beam stored in a circular storage ring. Such a scheme allows e+e- colliders with a center-of-mass energy of a few hundred GeV and eP colliders with a center-of-mass energy of several TeV. High luminosities are possible for both colliders. Submitted to Nuclear Instruments & Methods * W&k supported by the Department of Energy, contract DE - A C 0 3 - 76 SF 00 5 15. 1. Introduction In order to get a better understanding of the standard model of particle physics, higher energies and higher luminosities in particle collisions are desir- able. It is generally recognized that particle collisions involving leptons have a considerable advantage for experimental studies over purely hadronic interac- tions. The initial state is better defined and cleaner event samples are achieved. Unfortunately, the center-of-mass energy and the luminosity achievable in an electron storage ring are limited. The energy losses from synchrotron radiation increase rapidly with the beam energy. Even with the largest storage rings un- der construction or under discussion the beam energy cannot be extended far beyond 100 GeV [l]. I n addition, the luminosity in a storage ring is strongly limited by the beam-beam interaction. Event rates desirable to investigate the known particles are not even available at existing storage rings. One way out of this problem is the linear collider scheme [2,3].

Molecular oxygen, nitrogen, and ozone have been detected on some satellites of Saturn and Jupiter, as well as on comets. They are also expected to be present in ice-grain mantles within star-forming regions. The continuous energetic processing of icy objects in the Solar System induces physical and chemical changes within the ice. Laboratory experiments that simulate energetic processing (ions, photons, and electrons) of ices are therefore essential for interpreting and directing future astronomical observations. Aims. We provide vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoabsorption spectroscopic data of energetically processed nitrogen- and oxygen-rich ices that will help to identify absorption bands and/or spectral slopes observed on icy objects in the Solar System and on ice-grain mantles of the interstellar medium.

In this article, we review the theory developed by R.

We review the FEL theory, discussing how the FEL parameters emerge from it, which are fundamental for describing, designing and understanding all FEL experiments in the high-gain, single-pass operation.

It may greatly impact on the beam dynamics due to the very high magnetic field. The emittance growth becomes a main problem, even after a well correction of the beam optics. A local achromatic lattice is studied, in order to combat the emittance growth and keep the good performance of the SSRF storage ring, as well as possible. Other effects of the SW are simulated and optimized as well, including the beta beating, the tune shift, the dynamic aperture, and the field error effects.

  • Synchrotron Light Source
    Synchrotron Light Source The evolution of light sources echoes the progress of civilization in technology, and carries with it mankind's hopes to make life's dreams come true. The synchrotron light source is one of the most influential light sources in scientific research in our times. Bright light generated by ultra-rapidly orbiting electrons leads human beings to explore the microscopic world. Located in Hsinchu Science Park, the NSRRC operates a high-performance synchrotron, providing X-rays of great brightness that is unattainable in conventional laboratories and that draws NSRRC users from academic and technological communities worldwide. Each year, scientists and students have been paying over ten thousand visits to the NSRRC to perform experiments day and night in various scientific fields, using cutting-edge technologies and apparatus. These endeavors aim to explore the vast universe, scrutinize the complicated structures of life, discover novel nanomaterials, create a sustainable environment of green energy, unveil living things in the distant past, and deliver better and richer material and spiritual lives to mankind. Synchrotron Light Source Light, also known as electromagnetic waves, has always been an important means for humans to observe and study the natural world. The electromagnetic spectrum includes not only visible light, which can be seen with a naked human eye, but also radiowaves, microwaves, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays, classified according to their wave lengths. Light of Trajectory of the electron beam varied kind, based on its varied energetic characteristics, plays varied roles in the daily lives of human beings.
