Synchrotron light source

A synchrotron light source for producing synchrotron radiation through acceleration of an electron beam, comprising:

• an electron gun for producing the electron beam;
• a plurality of accelerators arranged parallel to one another to continuously accelerate the electron beam produced from the electron gun;
• a storage ring for storing the electron beam accelerated through the plurality of accelerators;
• and
• an undulator for producing the synchrotron radiation from the electron beam stored in the storage ring,
• wherein the plurality of accelerators comprise a plurality of linear accelerators arranged parallel to one another in a longitudinal direction on the plane, and
• wherein the plurality of linear accelerators comprise:
• a first linear accelerator for initially receiving the electron beam produced from the electron gun to accelerate the electron beam;
• a second linear accelerator arranged to face the first linear accelerator and receive the electron beam from the first linear accelerator;
• a third linear accelerator arranged parallel to the first linear accelerator at the outside of the first linear accelerator and receiving the electron beam from the second linear accelerator;
• a fourth linear accelerator arranged parallel to the second linear accelerator at the outside of the second linear accelerator and receiving the electron beam from the third linear accelerator;
• a fifth linear accelerator arranged parallel to the third linear accelerator at the outside of the third linear accelerator and receiving the electron beam from the fourth linear accelerator;
• and
• a sixth linear accelerator arranged parallel to the fourth linear accelerator at the outside of the fourth linear accelerator and receiving the electron beam from the fifth linear accelerator.
