Synchrotron radiation is the name given to the radiation which occurs when charged particles are accelerated in a curved path or orbit. This text introduces the subject, starting with some historical background then covering basic concepts such as flux, intensity, brilliance, emittance and Liouville's theorem. The book then covers the properties of synchrotron radiation, insertion devices, beamlines and monochromators.
