Abstract

There are at least 500 synchrotron radiation storage ring sources (SRS) in operation around the world, but all have been designed with the nuclear physicist in mind and to him the x-and UV radiation they produce is an embarrassment. The newly-completed facility at the SERC Daresbury Laboratory is the first SRS to be dedicated to research using these radiations and, through the high intensity of the beam and the flexibility of control over its wavelength, polarisation state and time structure, it offers the physicist, chemist, metallurgist and biologist exciting, even bewildering, scope for devising experiments.
