Abstract

Synchrotron radiation provides a powerful tool of high brightness and tunable energy range for scientific applications in different domains such as chemistry, biology, water studies, material science, atomic physics and many others. It is possible to probe the core electronic level of the matter with synchrotron radiation. Moreover, the scientific community has recently shown a great interest in high energy photons for other applications such as archaeological studies. To reply to different demands, this study gives two proposals of a single insertion device that can operate in the wiggler regime at high energy range and in the undulator regime at low energy range by simple gap adjustment. It develops the concept of insertion devices, gives detailed study of the possible technologies, provides a simulation of the emitted photon flux by the proposed insertions and compares the emitted radiation of each of them.
