This CD-ROM is an interactive and detailed introduction to the physics and technology of the generation of coherent radiation from accelerators as well as to its widespread high-tech applications in science, medicine and engineering. The topics covered are the interaction of light and matter, the technology of synchrotron light sources, spectroscopy, imaging, scattering and diffraction of X-rays, and applications to materials science, biology, biochemistry, medicine, chemistry, food and pharmaceutical technology. "Synchrotron Light" should provide an instructive and comprehensive multimedia learning tool for students, experienced practitioners and novices wishing to apply synchrotron radiation in their future work. It can be used for self-teaching and in courses at various levels in physics, chemistry, engineering, and biology. Lumiere Synchrotron introduit de facon interactive et detaillee la physique et la technologie associees a la lumiere coherente produite par des accelerateurs, ainsi que ses nombreuses applications en science, medecine et ingenierie. Les sujets couverts sont l'interaction de la lumiere et de la matiere, la technologie des sources de lumiere synchrotron, la spectroscopie, l'imagerie, la diffusion et la diffraction des rayons X, de meme que les applications en science des materiaux, biologie, biochimie, medecine, industrie alimentaire et pharmaceutique. Toutes les sources de rayonnement synchrotron dans le monde sont presentees et accessibles par un lien sur leur site internet. Lumiere Synchrotron est un outil d'apprentissage multimedia complet et approfondi pour les etudiants ainsi que pour les professionnels experimentes ou debutants souhaitant utiliser le rayonnement synchrotron dans le futur. Il peut etre utilise en auto-enseignement ou a l'occasion de cours de physique, chimie, sciences de l'ingenieur et biologie a differents niveaux. Le programme bilingue (anglais et francais) tourne completement a partir de ce CD-ROM hybride (IBM PC et compatibles, Mac Power PC), sans aucune procedure d'installation.
