Abstract :
The project DELSY is under development at JINR. It is based on an accelerator facility presented to JINR by the Institute for Nuclear and High Energy Physics (NIKHEF, Amsterdam): linear accelerator MEA and electron storage ring. Analysis has shown that it would be possible to build in Dubna a universal light source with unique characteristics consisting of the following components: a complex of Free Electron Lasers (FEL) covering continuously the wavelength range from far-infrared (150 μm) down to ultraviolet (150 nm), the DELSY storage ring and a vacuum VUV/soft X-ray FEL with minimal wavelength down to 5 nm—SASE (Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission) FEL. After complete commissioning of the DELSY facility, we will have a unique light source covering continuously the wavelength range from 1 mm down to a fraction of Angstrom. It is important that a significant fraction of the spectrum (from 1 mm down to 5 nm) will be covered by FELs providing extremely high brilliance of the output radiation.
