Many of its practitioners and users are associated with or are located close to synchrotron facilities.

Saskatoon is also home to the Canadian Light Source, Canada's national synchrotron facility.

Diamond Light Source, a synchrotron facility located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

As a national synchrotron facility with over 1000 individual users, it hosts scientists from all regions of Canada and around 20 other countries.

This original synchrotron facility, costing the equivalent of 66.5 million Euro, became operational on 19 December 1981.

Instead anomalous diffraction is recorded at different wavelengths of coherent X-ray light at a synchrotron facility.

Current synchrotron facilities can be very large, while Tantalus was not, and its small building, even after the 1972 expansion, was crowded with equipment and researchers.

Only four dedicated synchrotron facilities in the world are currently larger than Diamond, and all are high energy machines.

Instead, Marine Cotte of the synchrotron facility and colleagues found two other degradation processes at work, probably caused at least in part by chlorine.

At a large synchrotron facility there will be many beamlines, each optimised for a particular field of research.
