Laboratório Nacional de Luz Síncrotron (Portuguese pronunciation: [laboɾɐˈtɔɾju nɐsjoˈnaw dʒi ˈlus ˈsĩkɾotɾõ]; LNLS) is the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory,[2] a research institution on physics, chemistry, material science and life sciences. It is located in the city of Campinas, sub-district of Barão Geraldo, state of São Paulo, Brazil.
The Center, which is operated by the Brazilian Center of Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM)[3] under a contract with the National Research Council (CNPq) and the Ministry of Science and Technology of Brazil, has the only particle accelerator (a synchrotron) in Latin America, which was designed and built in Brazil by a team of physicists, technicians and engineers.
Currently, the Brazilian Synchrotron has 6 different beamlines[4] in operation for its user community, covering energies ranging from a few electronvolts to tens of kiloelectronvolts. The uses include:
These beamlines are part of Sirius, a 3 GeV synchrotron light source. The plan includes an initial 13 beamlines, with a final goal of 40, ranging from 10 eV to 100 keV. It was inaugurated in 2018.[11]
