The Wellcome Trust has announced that it will contribute 10 million to the costs of a new second-generation synchroton source known as Diamond at the Daresbury laboratories in Cheshire, England. The source is to replace the present source at Daresbury, which will be obsolete early in the next decade. Uncertainty remains over how much of the costs of the source will be paid for by central government and the research councils.
