Next-Generation Light Sources in 2010
As electron beam quality and control continue to improve, so do the capabilities of free-electron lasers (FELs). Significant advances have occurred in the field over the last few years and have greatly enabled the end users of the FELs, i.e., those doing cutting-edge research via use of the extremel...
