Six synchrotron light beams are expected to be operational in 2020 -- short of the 13 scientists had hoped for, but sufficient for testing to start. “Time is very important in science,” said ...

Meet NSLS-II Vacuum Group Leader Robert Todd and learn about the crucial role high-tech vacuum systems play in maintaining ...

Parallel-beam scanning uses a synchrotron beam line, offering distortion-free volumetric data for small objects, but is limited to lower-energy X-rays. (Image: Carlton University) X-ray tomography can ...

Indeed, it has been proposed by some researchers that these combined technologies could be used to design a facility based on one synchrotron beam line with an average throughout approaching one ...

Stations within the synchrotron called beamlines allowed Houry’s team to see the atomic structure of their protein used in the new compounds. “You put it on that beam line and hit it with x-rays.

Containing an index of all four volumes, extensive chapter glossaries, and a wealth of references, this volume includes the information you need to start solving problems in optics, from design of ...

At Beijing's Huairou Science City, the first fourth-generation synchrotron radiation light source in Asia is about to be put into operation. It consists of a linear accelerator, booster, storage ring ...
