The ALBA Synchrotron Light Source Autores/as Ana Belén Martínez ALBA Synchrotron, Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona), Spain Caterina Biscari ALBA Synchrotron, Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona), Spain Gastón García ALBA Synchrotron, Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona), Spain Palabras clave: synchrotron, beamlines, biosciences, materials science, condensed matter Resumen ALBA is the Spanish third-generation synchrotron light source. It is located in Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona) and constitutes the largest scientific infrastructure in Spain. The facility consists of an accelerator complex providing 3 GeV electron beam and several experimental beamlines, with photon energies currently ranging from IR up to hard X-rays of tens of KeV. Different synchrotron radiation techniques are available including diffraction, spectroscopies and imaging.
