Electron stretcher accelerator ELSA
The electron accelerator ELSA is operated by the university of Bonn in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.
It consists of three stages (injector LINACs, booster synchrotron and stretcher ring) and
delivers a beam of polarized or unpolarized electrons with variable energy of max. 3.5 GeV.
An internal beam of max. 200 mA can be stored and used for synchrotron radiation experiments
in the field of material sciences and condensed matter physics. The main research topic is hadron
physics. For this purpose a beam of up to several nA can be extratced and transfered to the different
experimental areas.
