Present status of SPring-8 and the atomic physics undulator beamline
- Institute of Physical and Chemical Research Wako, Saitama (Japan)
The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) and the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, both of which are supervised by the Science and Technology Agency (STA), have been constructing a high-brilliant synchrotron radiation source and facilities at Nishi-harima, Hyougo Pref., which called SPring-8 (Super Photon ring-8 GeV). Research and development for the SPring-8 was started in 1987 and the construction in 1991. The first photon beam will be obtained in early of 1997. Project schedule is shown. As precise descriptions of SPring-8 have been published elsewhere, a brief summary of the facilities will be discussed here. The Atomic Physics subgroup sent a letter of intent for the call for public beamlines. Main objectives of this beamline are as follows: (1) precise studies of inner-shell processes of heavy atoms (atomic number {ge}10) including scattering processed; (2) dynamic processes accompanied by photoabsorption of ions especially multiply charged ions. Experimental techniques have been developed as the R&D of the Atomic Physics subgroup.
