facility reports
The UVSOR has been operational for nearly 14 years. In recent years, improvements to accelerators and beamlines have been carried out to obtain better performance and new scientific achievements. For example, a new type of helical undulator and a resonance transverse kicker were installed into the straight sections of the storage ring, and about one-third of the beamlines were upgraded by installing new monochromators and an interferometer. In addition, instruments and equipment were improved for research studies, with many interesting results. The most up-to-date information of the UVSOR facility is presented.
