First stored beam at ESRF-EBS
First electrons stored in the storage ring of the Extremely Brilliant Source
On December 6, 2019, only five days after the start of the commissioning of the new EBS storage ring at ESRF, electrons have been stored for the first time. This is a key milestone on the way to opening to the international scientific community the first high-energy fourth-generation synchrotron light source, known as EBS - Extremely Brilliant Source. User Service Mode will start in summer 2020. [more] |
