Spectrometer calibrations have been performed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (formerly the National Bureau of Standards) for over 10 yr using the calculable synchrotron radiation from the SURF 2 electron storage ring. SURF 2 is not a high-performance storage ring that can operate at electron energies up to 300 MeV and with over 250 mA of stored current. One beam line, operationally supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is dedicated for use as a radiometric instrumentation calibration facility for outside users.
