Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and
Applications in the Middle East (SESAME)
The idea of an international synchrotron light source in the
Middle East was first proposed in 1997 by Herman Winick of
the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (Stanford University,
USA) and Gustaf-Adolf Voss of the German Synchrotron (Deutsches
Elktronen Synchrotron) during two seminars organized in 1997
in Italy and in 1998 in Sweden by Tord Ekelof with the
CERN-based Middle East Scientific Co-operation group headed
by Sergio Fubini Germany had just decided to decommission
its facility, BESSY 1, since a newer one was being built in
Berlin. At the request of Sergio Fubini and Herwig Schopper,
the German government agreed to donate the components to
SESAME, provided the dismantling was taken care of by the
latter. The plan was brought to the attention of Federico
Mayor, then Director-General of UNESCO, who called a meeting
at the Organization's Headquaters in Paris in July 1999 of
delegates from the Middle East and other regions. The
outcome of the meeting was the launching of the project and
the setting-up of an International Interim Council under the
Chairmanship of Herwig Schopper. Jordan, which has been
selected to host the center, is providing the land as well
as funds for the construction of the building. The
groundbreaking ceremony was held in January 2003 and
construction work began the following July.

Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource
(SSRL):
As one of the pioneering synchrotron
facilities in the world, SSRL has served the scientific
community for over 35 years by providing outstanding user
support and important contributions to science and
instrumentation. SSRL is primarily supported by the DOE
Offices of Basic Energy Sciences and Biological and
Environmental Research, with additional support from the NIH
National Center for Research Resources, Biomedical
Technology Program, and the National Institute of General
Medical Sciences.

Diamond Light Source:
Diamond Light Source is a synchrotron facility located in
Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. Its purpose is to produce
intense beams of light whose special characterstics are
useful in many areas of scientific research. In particular
it can be used to investigate the structure and properties
of a wide range of materials (proteins, for example). The
facility's name is abbreviated to Diamond throughout this
article.

European
Synchrotron Radiation Facility
(ESRF):
The ESRF is an international
research institute for cutting-edge science with photons:
Discovery of the structure and dynamics of our complex
world, down to the single atom.

University of Wisconsin, Madison
Synchrotron Radiation Center
(SRC):
SRC is a national research
facility where scientists study a diverse array of research
problems, including: superconductors; low-dimensional
solids; quantum confinement; geology and environmental
science; microanalysis of cells and tissues as part of
disease research such as brain cancer and Alzheimer's
disease; and cutting-edge exploration of nanotechnology.

HASYLAB:
The Hamburger Synchrotronstrahlungslabor (HASYLAB) at
Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, a Research Centre of
the Helmholtz Association, in Hamburg (Germany). The
research at HASYLAB is focused on photon science.

Spring 8:
SPring-8 is a large synchrotron
radiation facility which delivers the most powerful
synchrotron radiation currently available. Consisting of
narrow, powerful beams of electromagnetic radiation,
synchrotron radiation is produced when electron beams,
accelerated to nearly the speed of light, are forced to
travel in a curved path by a magnetic field. The research
conducted at SPring-8, located in Harima Science Park City,
Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, includes nanotechnology,
biotechnology and industrial applications. The name
"SPring-8" is derived from "Super Photon ring-8 GeV" (8 GeV,
or 8 giga electron volts, being the power output of the
ring).

National Synchrotron Radiation
Research Center, Taiwan:
The first Taiwan synchrotron
light source situated at the National Synchrotron Radiation
Research Center (NSRRC) has been operational for many years.
However, in order to cope with the immense competition in
the international scientific arena, and the rapid
development of world synchrotron light sources, insufficient
brightness of the present Taiwan Light Source (TLS) in hard
x-ray region, near congestion of all the TLS beam ports, the
increasing demand for even brighter synchrotron x-ray source
for top-notch research as strongly expressed in the users
meeting in the past several years, and also at the crucial
moment of the government's grand plan of promoting genomic
medicine, biology and nano-technology in the country, the
former SRRC Board in its Forty-First Meeting in February
2001, suggested to study the feasibility of building another
synchrotron light source with higher electron energy. In
July 2004, the Board decided to the government the
construction of Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) and its
multidisciplinary experimental facilities. A
feasibility study report on the construction of the Taiwan
Photon Source (TPS) was completed indicating NSRRC's
technical capability to build at its present site in seven
years a 3~3.3 GeV electron energy, 518 meter circumference,
low-emittance synchrotron storage ring which will offer one
of the world's brightest synchrotron x-ray sources, provide
cutting-edge experimental facilities and novel
multidisciplinary scientific research opportunities, enhance
world-class academic research, as well as create Taiwan's
scientific research marvels in the twenty-first century.

Center for Synchrotron Radiation Research and
Instrumentation
(CSRRI):
CSRRI promotes application of the
tools and techniques of synchrotron radiation to science and
engineering research, with a particular focus on developing
experimental beam line facilities to serve the needs of
various collaborative access teams at the Advanced Photon

Lund University – Department of
Synchrotron Radiation:
Most of the division's work is
based upon the use of radiation emitted from an electron
storage ring such as the one at our local synchrotron
radiation laboratory, MAX-lab, but we also use other surface
science techniques such as low energy electron diffraction (LEED)
and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). These web pages
describe some of our work and provide useful information for
those who want to visit or contact us.
