Synchrotron Light Sources and Free-Electron Lasers Accelerator Physics, Instrumentation and Science Applications

Hardly any other discovery of the nineteenth century did have such an impact on science and technology as Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen’s seminal find of the X-rays. X-ray tubes soon made their way as excellent instruments for numerous applications in medicine, biology, materials science and testing, chemi...
