National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) will be a 3-GeV, 792-m circumference third-generation synchrotron radiation facility with ultralow emittance and extremely high brightness. Front ends are required to transmit synchrotron radiation from the storage ring to the beam line while providing equipment and personnel protection. There will be up to 57 front ends in the NSLS-II facility with six in the baseline. Original designs are being developed and will be manufactured for three non-canted in-vacuum undulators, one canted in-vacuum undulator, one elliptically polarized undulator and one damping wiggler. Bending magnet and three-pole wiggler front ends are also being designed. Power densities range from 0.3 to 89.8 kW mrad−2, with total powers ranging from 0.34 to 64.5 kW. All components intercepting synchrotron radiation are water cooled and were analysed to confirm acceptable thermal limits.

National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) will be a 3-GeV 792 m circumference third generation synchrotron radiation facility with ultra low emittance and extremely high brightness. There will be a total of 90 multipole storage ring girders supporting the vacuum chambers, multipole magnets and various pieces of ancillary equipment. A major effort is being made to meet the stringent assembly and alignment requirements for the girder assemblies using relatively few and removable positioning fixtures. Girder assembly and alignment will be accomplished in four phases. Each of these phases will be described along with the fixtures required.

A 2 GeV synchrotron light source project is in progress in Pohang, Korea. The light source is designed to provide high brightness radiation with continuous wavelengths down to 1 A (10-8 em) with its peak at 4�43 A(Le. 2�8 keY). The project, consisting of a full energy injector linear accelerator and a 2 GeV storage ring, was launched in 1988 and is scheduled to be completed by the end of 1994. In this article, we introduce the main features and status of the storage ring components and the installation procedure. Radiation characteristics and beamline status are also described.

A synchrotron light source dedicated to medical applications is required to be compact for installation in limited spaces at hospitals. The NIRS storage ring, with a circumference of 44.8 m, is designed to accelerate electrons up to 1.8 GeV and to store a beam of 400 mA. The ring is composed of superconducting bending magnets for downsizing. A beam of 300 MeV is injected into the ring from a microtron operated at an L-band RF frequency. There are two superconducting multipole wigglers with nine poles and a maximum field of 8 T, which can produce a photon flux of about 1.4 × 1013 photons s−1 mrad−1 (0.1% bandwidth)−1 at 33 keV used for coronary angiography.

We are commissioning a new generation scanning photoemission microscope (X1-SPEM II) at beamline X1A of the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS). Our first generation scanning photoemission microscope (X1-SPEM I) was the first to achieve submicron resolution. One of the major improvements is the replacement of the home-made single pass cylindrical mirror analyzer with a high energy resolution, multi-channel Hemispherical Sector Analyzer (HSA). The alignment scheme for the optical elements has also been redesigned. The advantages of these two major improvements will be discussed.A photoemission microscope requires a high brightness source and a good focusing scheme. In most cases, a monochromator is placed between the photon source and the focusing optical elements. Our X1-SPEM uses the soft x-ray undulator at the NSLS as a high brightness source. A Fresnel zone plate is coherently illuminated by the monochromatic beam selected by the spherical grating monochromator (250-800 eV range) to form a microprobe, less then 0.2 μm in size.

National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS-II) is a new 3 GeV, 500 mA, high-brightness synchrotron light source facility being built at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Approved for construction in January 2009, the NSLS-II project is expected to be completed in June 2014. In this paper we discuss the present status of the mechanical design and construction of some major components of this facility, namely (i) conventional facilities, (ii) injector complex (iii) storage ring, (iv) RF system and (v) beamlines.
