An insertion device is a part of a synchrotron which produces highly-brilliant, forward-directed and quasi-monochromatic synchrotron radiation. The name comes from the fact that these are devices which are inserted into a straight section of a synchrotron or a storage ring. They are not essential to the operation of the storage ring itself, their only function is to generate synchrotron radiation.
