175 III. Beamlines III. Beamlines The SPring-8 storage ring can accommodate up to 62 beamlines: 34 insertion devices, 4 long undulators, and 24 bending magnets. At the time of writing, 53 beamlines were in operation, covering a wide variety of research fields of synchrotron radiation science and technology. The beamlines are classified into the following four types. (1) Public Beamlines (2) Contract Beamlines (3) RIKEN Beamlines (4) Accelerator Diagnostics Beamlines There are now 26 public beamlines in full operation. The beamlines that have been proposed and constructed by external organizations, such as universities, research institutes, and private companies, are called contract beamlines and are exclusively used by the contractors for their own research purposes. At present, 17 contract beamlines are in operation. The contract beamlines include NSRRC BM (BL12B2) and NSRRC ID (BL12XU) beamlines, which were contracted by the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center in Taiwan. These are the first contract beamlines installed at SPring-8 by a foreign organization. We celebrated their 10th anniversary in 2010. Currently, three contract beamlines are under construction. The beamlines constructed by RIKEN are called RIKEN beamlines and are used for RIKEN’s research activities. RIKEN is now operating eight RIKEN beamlines and is constructing a new beamline called RIKEN Quantum NanoDynamics (BL43LXU). In addition, two accelerator diagnostics beamlines are in operation. To display the beamline portfolio of SPring-8, the beamline map is shown in Fig. 2 together with the beamline classification. The research field of each beamline is presented in Table III. Main Bldg.
