3Electromagnetic Radiation and Structure of matter
The shorter the wavelength, the greater the
resolution for observing small object
Synchrotron radiation sources span wide regions
of the electromagnetic spectrum
4Radiation production mechanisms
There are two ways to produce synchrotron
radiation
Classical mechanism acceleration of charged
particle (for instance, electrons and positrons)
- Bremsstrahlung deceleration of high energy
electrons in a metal - Synchrotron radiation emitted by relativistic
charged particles in particle accelerators - Cosmic synchrotron radiation

The functions of the life molecules, like
proteins and nucleic acids, depend on
three-dimensional atomic structure. For instance
the knowledge of viruses has allowed the
preparation of anti-viruses compounds to be
prepared

molecular structure of biological

Microtomogram of illiac crest bone from a female
patient undergoing haemodialysis. The three
images are of biopsies taken at three ages, 24,

Q ? 1/g rad
The beam collimation is defined as the photon
opening angle Q ? 1/g rad. For GeV electrons Q
can be smaller than 0.1 m rad. It means that at
100 m from the source the vertical dimension of
the beam, h, is 1 cm.
Horizontally the beam opens as a fan. A very thin
sheet of light spreads out from the orbit on the
orbital plane.

Circularar polarization
The synchrotron light out of the orbital plane
has circular components with opposite
helicities above and below the horizontal plane.
Synchrotron light - Springer Verlag
Polarization is exploited for studying magnetic
interactions. The difference in absorption in
left and right hand circularly polarised light by
a solid can be directly related to the
ferromagnetic magnetization density (circular
dichroism).

The SESAME Project aims to establish the Middle
East's first major international research center
as a cooperative venture by the scientists of the
region
Eleven countries have so far joined the project.
These are Armenia, Cyprus, Egypt, Greece, Iran,
Israel, Jordan, Morocco, Oman, Palestinian
Authority, and Turkey.
The project is being developed under the umbrella
of UNESCO and will be located in Allaan, Jordan
(30 km from Amman and 30 km from the King
Hussein/Allenby Bridge crossing of the Jordan
River.
