Synchrotron Light Sources and Recent Developments of Accelerator Technology

Abstract

The main aim of the next-generation synchrotron radiation sources is to provide diffraction-limited undulator radiation in the 0.1–4 nm range with an average power of 10–1000 W and monochromaticity of 10−3–10−4. A review of new accelerator technologies that could be used for the construction of such types of synchrotron radiation sources is given.
