Indus-1
     

Indus-1, the 450MeV electron storage ring, is the first synchrotron radiation source designed and developed in India. Indus-1 has a critical wavelength of 61Å and is produced in four bending magnets.

The microtron and the booster synchrotron, forming the injector system which supplies 450MeV electrons to the storage ring, have also been developed.

Commissioned in 1999, Indus-1, is routinely operated in two shifts at a design current of 100mA, though it has operated well up to a beam current of 200mA. The beam lifetime achieved at 100mA is 85minutes.

Four synchrotron radiation user’s beamlines on Indus-1 are operational; A fifth is under commissioning and the sixth one is under construction.
