The 37th Annual Denver Conference on Applications of X-Ray Analysis
was held August 1-5, 1988, at the Sheraton Steamboat Resort and
Conference Center, Steamboat Springs, Colorado. As usual,
alternating with x-ray diffraction, the emphasis this year was
x-ray fluorescence, but as has been the pattern for several
occasions over the last few years, the Plenary Session did not deal
with that subject, specifically. In an attempt to introduce the
audience to one of the new developments in x-ray analysis, the
title of the session was "High Brilliance Sources/Applications,"
and dealt exclusively with synchrotron radiation, a topic which has
made a very large impact on the x-ray community over the last
decade. As the organizer and co-chairman of the Plenary Session
(with Paul Predecki), it is my responsibility to report on that
session here. The Conference had the privilege of obtaining the
services of some of the preeminent practitioners of research using
this remarkable x-ray source; they presented the audience with
unusually lucid descriptions of the work which has been
accomplished in the development and application of the continuous,
high intensity, tunable, polarized and collimated x-rays available
from no facility other than these specialized storage rings. The
opening lecture (and I use that term intentionally) was an
enthusiastic description of "What is Synchrotron Radiation?" by
Professor Boris Batterman of Cornell University and the Cornell
High Energy Synchrotron Sourc(! (CHESS).
