The Pohang Light Source is a third-generation synchrotron radiation fa
cility currently under construction in Pohang, Korea. It consists of a
2 GeV full energy injection linac, a storage ring, and three initial
beamlines. Construction of the conventional facility is now nearly com
pleted and the machine integration of the linac and the storage ring i
s well under way. The commissioning is scheduled to take place toward
the fall of 1994, and it will be opened to national as well as interna
tional users by mid-1995. The facility will eventually furnish high-br
ightness sources of radiation utilizing 22 bending magnets and 10 inse
rtion devices. Characteristics of the design and beamlines under const
ruction will be described.
