How to visualize an electron storage ring
Dance your RIS*: The electron storage ring BESSY II at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin produces synchrotron radiation, that scientists use to answer all kinds of scientific questions.
Now BESSY gets an update and will turn into BESSY VSR. A very nicely done video explains what will change. For this, the researchers at BESSY had to use all their acting skills!
