The future requirements for synchrotron radiation facilities in the UK have been surveyed by consulting the large user community. Some of the results of this survey are presented and it is shown that all requirements could be satisfied by access to three synchrotron radiation sources covering the spectral range from 5 eV to 100 keV. These sources are the 6 GeV ESRF, MES (a new 3 GeV replacement for the SRS) and LES (a new low-energy source at 700 MeV). Outline plans for LES and MES and their optimization to generate the requisite radiation quality and spectral range are discussed. |
