What is synchrotron light?
Synchrotron light is the electromagnetic radiation emitted when electrons, moving at velocities close to the speed of light, are forced to change direction under the action of a magnetic field.

Nurturing knowledge during National Science Week
This National Science Week, we're acknowledging the 2026 theme, “Seeds of Science: Nurturing knowledge for all” by celebrating the ideas, facilities and people that help scientific knowledge flourish with a series of activities.
THz - Far Infrared
The THz/Far-IR Beamline couples the high brightness and collimation of a bend-magnet synchrotron radiation to a Bruker IFS125HR spectrometer providing high-resolution spectra (0.00096 cm-1) with signal to noise ratio superior to that of thermal sources up to 1350 cm-1 for gas-phase applications; the beamline also delivers signal to noise ratio superior to that of thermal sources up to 350 cm-1 for condensed phase samples.
