They interact  selectively with electrons in atoms and molecules and can be used to  study atomic physics, chemical reactions, surfaces and solids, and  biological entities. Over the past 20 years, synchrotrons have emerged  as powerful sources of soft X-rays for experimental use. A new, third  generation of synchrotron light sources is scheduled to start  operation over the next few years, beginning in 1993. These facilities  are distinguished by their ultra-low emittance electron beams and by  their undulators -- precisely engineered magnetic devices that cause  the electrons passing through them to produce highly coherent X-rays  and ultraviolet light of unprecedented spectral brightness. This  volume emphasizes third-generation sources that produce light in the  10 eV--10 KeV energy range. It describes potential applications  ranging from the purely scientific to the commercially viable and  includes chapters on the practical aspects of designing undulators and  beam line optics. Unique in its coverage, the book is a vital addition  to the library of any scientist who needs information on the world's  most advanced imaging and spectroscopic techniques. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  (ABSTRACT)\u003cbr\u003e  This volume emphasizes the applications of new third generation  synchrotron radiation sources that produce light in the ultraviolet  and soft X-ray range of the spectrum. The unprecedented brightness of  this light enables experiments to be conducted with greatly increased  spatial and spectral resolution. Scientists can exploit these  properties for imaging and spectroscopic applications that until now  were impossible or impractical. Prominent researchers in the field  describe these applications and others made possible by the light's  pulsed time structure and polarization. The volume also includes  chapters on the practical aspects of designing undulators and beam  line optics. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401043755\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0868-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 397\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398549631116,"sku":"9789401043755","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401043755.jpg?v=1775709346","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401043755","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
