A Dedicated Synchrotron Light Source for Ultrafast X-ray Science*
We describe a proposed femtosecond synchrotron radiation x-ray source based on a flat-beam RF gun and a recirculating superconducting linac that provides beam to an array of undulators and bend magnets. X-ray pulse durations of <100 fs at a 10 kHz repetition rate are obtained by a combination of electron pulse compression, transverse temporal correlation of the electrons, and x-ray pulse compre...
متن کاملCryogenic X-ray detectors for synchrotron science.
Cryogenic detectors operated at temperatures below 1 K offer an order of magnitude higher energy resolution than conventional semiconductor-based energy-dispersive detectors, and orders of magnitude higher efficiency that grating spectrometers. Initially developed for astrophysics applications, these detectors are increasingly used in synchrotron-based research, both for detector characterizati...
متن کاملX-ray synchrotron radiation and particle acceleration
I discuss X-ray synchrotron emission as a probe of particle acceleration, concentrating mainly on low-power (FRI) jets but also touching on the hotspots in FRII sources. Combining X-ray and radio data has allowed us to locate the sites of high-energy particle acceleration, and hence jet kinetic energy dissipation, in a number of objects. Recent data solve some old problems but present some new ...
متن کاملSynchrotron X-ray structure refinement of Zn4Sb3
The structure of the thermoelectric Zn4Sb3 is refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data collected at wavelengths both near to and relatively far from the Zn adsorption edge. In agreement with earlier studies, the compound crystallized in a trigonal structure, space group R3c with a = 12.2406(3)Å, c = 12.4361(3)Å at room temperature, and there are three primary sites in the asymmet...
متن کاملX-ray synchrotron emission from supernova remnants
X-ray synchrotron emission tells us of the highest energy reached by accelerated electrons. In a few supernova remnants (SN 1006, G347.3−0.5) this is the dominant form of X-ray radiation, but in most it is superposed to the dominant thermal emission. Thanks to the spectro-imaging capability of Chandra and XMM-Newton, X-ray synchrotron emission has now been unambiguously detected in most young s...
