Preface

Since the first observation of synchrotron radiation in 1947, progress in the generation of electromagnetic radiation using particle accelerators and in experimental methods has allowed enormous progress in the fine analysis of matter. This progress has not been incremental but rather truly innovative and in some cases revolutionary. Thanks to advances in accelerator physics and technology the improvement in the characteristics of synchrotron radiation and free electron laser sources, especially brilliance, coherence and time structure, has spanned many orders of magnitude. At the same time, new metho
