Properties of Synchrotron Radiation

The properties of the synchrotron radiation are first discussed qualitatively and the main results of the exact theory are then summarized. The angular and spectral distributions of the synchrotron radiation from an electron storage ring now being planned in the Photon Factory are calculated. A layout of the beam lines and experimental areas coupled with the proposed machine is shown. Finally the photon flux of the proposed machine is compared with those obtained from other synchrotron radiation facilities.
