(Since Tuesday,16,Feb,1999)

When an electron with its velocity almost equal to that of light is accelerated, e.g., by magnetic field, it delivers bright light with continuous spectra ranging from far infrared to x-ray. The light generated through such a process is called synchrotron radiation (SR) or synchrotron light. Since SR is much brighter and has higher directionality than any other light source it provides great scientific opportunity for various fields; from basic science to applied science and technology.
The Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SRL) has an electron storage ring (SOR-RING) equipped with the instruments for spectroscopy experiments. Since 1974 this ring had provided bright and stable SR for the outside users and SRL staff members. But its operation for the user experiments was stopped on March 31 in 1997 for some reasons. SRL also has a branch laboratory in the site of the National Laboratory for High Energy Physics (KEK). Two beamlines are installed at the Photon Factory of KEK, and advanced experiments such as spin-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy are carried out there.
Furthermore, SRL is promoting the construction project of a third-generation high brilliance light source at Kashiwa Campus, a new campus of Tokyo University; in the near future the light source will be one of the most brilliant source for vacuum ultraviolet and soft x-ray experiments.
