Summary:

Why should an established surface scientist leave his/her own laboratory to perform synchrotron radiation experiments? This book seeks to answer this question, describing the scope to obtain significantly improved data by established methods, but also entirely new data using techniques for which there is no equivalent non-synchrotron method.
