Aarhus University

Aarhus University (Aarhus Universitet, abbreviated AU) is a public research university with its main campus located in Aarhus, Denmark.

See ASTRID2 and Aarhus University

AIP Conference Proceedings

AIP Conference Proceedings is a serial published by the American Institute of Physics since 1970.

See ASTRID2 and AIP Conference Proceedings

Beam emittance

In accelerator physics, emittance is a property of a charged particle beam.

See ASTRID2 and Beam emittance

In accelerator physics, a beamline refers to the trajectory of the beam of particles, including the overall construction of the path segment (guide tubes, diagnostic devices) along a specific path of an accelerator facility.

See ASTRID2 and Beamline

Circular dichroism

Circular dichroism (CD) is dichroism involving circularly polarized light, i.e., the differential absorption of left- and right-handed light.

See ASTRID2 and Circular dichroism

Diffraction grating

In optics, a diffraction grating is an optical grating with a periodic structure that diffracts light, or another type of electromagnetic radiation, into several beams traveling in different directions (i.e., different diffraction angles).

See ASTRID2 and Diffraction grating

Dipole magnet

A dipole magnet is the simplest type of magnet.

See ASTRID2 and Dipole magnet

Electron

The electron (or in nuclear reactions) is a subatomic particle with a negative one elementary electric charge.

See ASTRID2 and Electron

Electronvolt

In physics, an electronvolt (symbol eV), also written electron-volt and electron volt, is the measure of an amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron accelerating through an electric potential difference of one volt in vacuum.

See ASTRID2 and Electronvolt

Insertion device

An insertion device (ID) is a component in modern synchrotron light sources, so called because they are "inserted" into accelerator tracks.

See ASTRID2 and Insertion device

Microtron

A microtron is a type of particle accelerator concept originating from the cyclotron in which the accelerating field is not applied through large D-shaped electrodes, but through a linear accelerator structure.

See ASTRID2 and Microtron

Nanometre

molecular scale. The nanometre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: nm), or nanometer (American spelling), is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one billionth (short scale) of a meter (0.000000001 m) and to 1000 picometres.

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research (Nucl. Instrum. Methods Phys. Res.) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Elsevier.

Physica Scripta

Physica Scripta is an international scientific journal for experimental and theoretical physics.

See ASTRID2 and Physica Scripta

Physical Review Letters

Physical Review Letters (PRL), established in 1958, is a peer-reviewed, scientific journal that is published 52 times per year by the American Physical Society.

See ASTRID2 and Physical Review Letters

Spectroscopy

Spectroscopy is the field of study that measures and interprets electromagnetic spectra.

See ASTRID2 and Spectroscopy

Storage ring

A storage ring is a type of circular particle accelerator in which a continuous or pulsed particle beam may be kept circulating, typically for many hours.

See ASTRID2 and Storage ring

Synchrotron

A synchrotron is a particular type of cyclic particle accelerator, descended from the cyclotron, in which the accelerating particle beam travels around a fixed closed-loop path.

See ASTRID2 and Synchrotron

Synchrotron light source

A synchrotron light source is a source of electromagnetic radiation (EM) usually produced by a storage ring, for scientific and technical purposes.

See ASTRID2 and Synchrotron light source

Synchrotron radiation

Synchrotron radiation (also known as magnetobremsstrahlung radiation) is the electromagnetic radiation emitted when relativistic charged particles are subject to an acceleration perpendicular to their velocity.

See ASTRID2 and Synchrotron radiation

Synchrotron Radiation Source

The Synchrotron Radiation Source (SRS) at the Daresbury Laboratory in Cheshire, England was the first second-generation synchrotron radiation source to produce X-rays. ASTRID2 and synchrotron Radiation Source are synchrotron radiation facilities.

See ASTRID2 and Synchrotron Radiation Source

Ultraviolet

Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation of wavelengths of 10–400 nanometers, shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays.

See ASTRID2 and Ultraviolet

Undulator

An undulator is an insertion device from high-energy physics and usually part of a larger installation, a synchrotron storage ring, or it may be a component of a free electron laser.
