Synchrotron Radiation Center

Established in 1996, just two years after the College of Science and Engineering moved to the Biwako-Kusatsu Campus, the Synchrotron Radiation Center (SR Center) was created to be a highlight of the new campus.
The university purchased a compact superconducting electron storage ring called AURORA from Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd., to serve as the synchrotron radiation light source. The SR Center is the first and the only SR facility in a private university even after the construction of many other SRfacilities. We are actively contributing to the development of science and technology.
We will have the Thirties Anniversary in 2026.
