Abstract

We describe the development of activity at the Siberian Center for Synchrotron and Terahertz Radiation at Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP), SB RAS, since 1974, when the history of experiments with synchrotron radiation (SR) in the world was just beginning - there were no dedicated sources of radiation and works can be carried out at several nuclear centers in the world. BINP made a significant contribution to the development of synchrotron radiation sources, and SB RAS institutes did their part for development of SR application to problems of chemistry, catalysis, biology, geology and materials science. The experiments were made at VEPP-3/VEPP-4 installation.
