A 'LOQ' (low tune) configuration was also provided, to allow the efficient storage of one intense bunch of electrons (instead of up to 160), to provide radiation bursts at 3.123 MHz (the revolution frequency of the electrons, corresponding to the 96 m circumference).<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The design of the SRS consisted of a 5 MeV <a href="/wiki/Electron_gun" title="Electron gun">electron gun</a> at the start of an injector <a href="/wiki/Linear_particle_accelerator" title="Linear particle accelerator">linac</a>, which increased the energy to 12 MeV, to feed into a booster ring which boosted the electrons up to 600 MeV, which then fed into and filled up the storage ring.

The beam current would slowly drop over the course of several hours, when it would then have to be "re-filled", however it could be maintained at current of around 200mA for over 30 hours.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The storage ring had 16 dipole magnets from which 16 beamlines at tangents to the ring supplied synchrotron light to many different stations. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Stations_and_beamlines">Stations and beamlines</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Synchrotron_Radiation_Source&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Stations and beamlines"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The SRS had 16 beamlines which had many different functions.
