  After six years of op­er­a­tion, equip­ment lo­cated close to some vac­uum cham­bers of the SOLEIL stor­age ring show un­ex­pected dam­ages due to ra­di­a­tion. It has been pointed out that, in­side the so called “quadru­pole” vac­uum cham­bers, flu­o­res­cence X-rays are emit­ted by the ma­te­ri­als that in­ter­cept up­stream di­pole syn­chro­tron ra­di­a­tion. The en­ergy of the emit­ted X-ray is too high to be sig­nif­i­cantly at­ten­u­ated by the alu­minum of which the vac­uum cham­ber is made. Di­ag­nos­tics and means used to char­ac­ter­ize this ra­di­a­tion are pre­sented, and mea­sure­ments are com­pared to cal­cu­la­tions.
