Experimental Facilities
The ID line has a First Optics Enclosure and three tandem experimental stations (ID-B, ID-C and ID-D) with future capability for a second high energy branch line using a beam splitter. Only one of the experimental stations can accept x-rays at a time horizontally from the main beam.
Experimental Stations
15 ID-A
- First Optics Enclosure (FOE) for X-ray optics and beam processing components
15 ID-B
15 ID-D
- Extended height enclosure for accommodating tall apparatus such as polymer extruders
- Advanced Crystallography with High Energy
- Anomalous Small and Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (ASWAXS)
