Abstract: Techniques employing synchrotron radiation (SR) have had a major and growing impact on catalytic science. They have made key contributions to our understanding of structural properties of catalytic systems and of structural changes during the operation of a catalytic process. They can also improve our understanding of electronic and vibrational properties, which can contribute to the understanding of mechanisms. SR techniques are now key components of the experimental tool box of the catalytic scientist.
