Abstract

Synchrotron radiation (SR) generated by homogeneous magnetic fields of bending magnets is now employed at the Siberia-2 electron storage ring. It is planned that, in the near future, most of the storage ring’s free straight sections will be equipped with insertion devices (undulators and wigglers). Two projects of specialized radiation sources based on the Siberia-2 stor age ring are discussed. The first source is a vacuum milliundulator intended for generation of extremely bright X-ray beams. An X-ray source with vertically limited diffraction is shown to be feasible when the vertical emittance of an electron beam is equal to the diffraction emittance of photons with an energy of 2 keV. The second source uses edge radiation (ER) generated at the ends of bending magnets of the storage ring. Calculations show that, in the infrared and ultraviolet spectral regions, the ER intensity must exceed the intensity of standard SR formed by the homogeneous field of a bending magnet.
