Description

The talk is intended as a first information on synchrotron radiation for beginners. I will present the basics of generation of synchrotron radiation with the emphasis to its physical properties (energy spectrum, time structure, polarization, coherence).In the second part I bring basic information on insertion devices (wigglers, undulators) and on optical elements (monochromators, filters, focusing devices). The third part will be devoted to examples of experimental methods, which use unique properties of synchrotron radiation, especially high coherence, energy tunability and time structure.
