Indus-2 is a synchrotron radiation source with a nominal electron energy of 2.5 GeV and a critical wavelength of about 1.98 angstroms.
The ring has provisions for insertion of high field wigglers for the production of radiation of shorter wavelengths.
An additional advantage of this lattice is that the two long gaps between the focussing and defocussing quadrupoles in the achromat section provide a lot of space for accommodating beam diagnostics and vacuum devices.
One of the straight sections will be used for beam injection, two for RF cavities, and remaining five for insertion devices, which include two wigglers.
One wiggler with an 11 pole electromagnet (1.8 tesla) will provide radiation with critical wavelength of 1.66 angstroms.
Other wiggler with superconducting magnets with 5 poles and peak field of 5 tesla will provide radiation at 0.6 angstroms.
