Abstract

A synchrotron radiation (SR) source is one of the best light sources for XAFS measurements, which need an intense energy-tunable X-ray source with a wide range. Two types of SR sources are available: a storage ring and a linear accelerator. Sects. 3.1–3.3 describe the storage-ring source and associated beamlines. Chapter 4 describes an X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) as an advanced linear-accelerator source.
