Applications of Synchrotron Radiation

Following a brief review of its properties, discussions are presented of the application of synchrotron radiation to: (a) the determination of atomic arrangements using extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS); (b) the determination of atomic arrangements using x-ray anomalous scattering; (c) dynamic small angle x-ray scattering; (d) x-ray lithography and microscopy; (e) the determination of surface electronic states using vacuum ultraviolet radiation; (f) time resolved fluorescence from protein molecules.
