Beam On: Careers at the Synchrotron
produced by Rod Rees; interview by Roger Rassool (Blackburn, Victoria: Rees Films, 2007), 21 mins
Physicist Roger Rassool finds out who does what at a synchrotron, and why they love their jobs. A synchrotron is a large machine that accelerates electrons to almost the speed of light. As the electrons are deflected through magnetic fields they create extremely bright light. The light is channeled down beamlines...
