Up to 6 milliradians of bend magnetic radiation, with a 10.5keV critical energy, can be intercepted and focused by these monochromators. Examples of the scientific work that could be done at the new C station. Generally the station is setup to use one monochromator at a time by translating the other out of position in the coffin. Each mono has an associated set of shutters that permits white beam to remain on the crystal. The shutter is controlled by the user and opened to bring beam into the station.
Harmonic rejection is controlled by a mirror placed between the monochromator and sample.
Planned station start-up. The vacuum coffin should be fabricated by the end of June, and internal components assembled by the end of summer. Plan view of the new C line cave and hutch. The tunnel wall and CESR dipole magnets are visible at top. The C line white beam enters the figure from the left.
