Synchrotron radiation is the name given to the radiation which
occurs when charged particles are accelerated in a curved path or
orbit. Classically, any charged particle which moves in a curved
path or is accelerated in a straight-line path will emit
electromagnetic radiation. Various names are given to this
radiation in different contexts. Thus circular particle
accelerators are called synchrotrons, this is where charged
particles are accelerated to very high speeds and the radiation is
referred to as synchrotron radiation.Suitable for a summer short
course or one term lecture series this text introduces the subject,
starting with some historical background then covering basic
concepts such as flux, intensity, brilliance, emittance and
Liouville's theorem. The book then covers the properties of
synchrotron radiation, insertion devices, beamlines and
monochromators before finishing with an introduction to free
electron lasers and an overview of the most common techniques and
applications of this technology.
