Abstract

The unique properties of synchrotron radiation (SR) account for its wide usage into fundamental, applied and technological investigations. Large growth of the number of SR applications in technological processes and medical diagnostics has been observed recently, which makes the problem of developing compact and relatively cheap SR sources very actual. A good progress of Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP) in the field of fabrication of different superconductive devices for SR generation may give rise to a new tendency in the design of compact SR sources. Indeed, the 9 T superconducting bending magnet fabricated at BINP for the BESSY-2 storage ring is a good candidate for the main element of the magnetic structure of a compact SR machine. The development of compact hard X-ray SR source started at BINP. This work involves analysis of possible implementation of compact SR sources in industry, medicine and education. Main SR parameters meet the requirements of most popular research application methods. These parameters became a basis for determination of main parameters of storage ring and allowed us to propose a possible scheme of storage ring.
