Synchrotron Radiation Techniques and Applications

Synchrotron radiation as a spectroscopic research tool has undergone a most inter­ esting and astonishing historical development and has now come to the stage of an exciting boom. The machines which produce synchrotron radiation were built and de­ veloped exclusively for other purposes in the past,...
