A source of high-intensity X-rays used for molecular structure determination in X-ray crystallography.
A particle accelerator that produces high-density x-rays used for gathering crystallographic data for structural determinations. Tunable synchrotron radiation permits wavelength variation, enabling the use of multiple wavelength anomalous dispersion techn
A type of circular accelerator in which the particles travel in synchronized bunches at fixed radius.
A synchrotron is a device in which particles are acceletated to very high speeds (usually in circular paths) within a magnetic field. Physicists used synchrotrons to study particles, subatomic interactions, and other basic phenomena.
A type of particle accelerator being discussed as a potential source of X-rays for use in X-ray lithography.
A name given to X-rays or light produced by electrons circulating at nearly the speed of light. These can be used to investigate atomic and molecular structure.
A synchrotron is a particular type of cyclic particle accelerator in which the magnetic field (to turn the particles so they circulate) and the electric field (to accelerate the particles) are carefully synchronized with the travelling particle beam. They were developed to study high-energy particle physics.
