Coherent VUV and soft X-ray radiation from undulators in modern storage rings
Abstract
Magnetic structures in modern storage rings provide an assured route to fundamentally new opportunities for extending coherent radiation experiments to the vacuum ultraviolet and soft X-ray spectral regions. Coherent power levels of order 10 milliwatts are anticipated, in a fully spatially coherent beam, with a longitudinal coherence length of order 1 micron. In addition to broad tuneability and polarization control, the radiation would occur in 20 psec pulses, at 500 MHz repetition rate.
