This station has a shielded monochromator box in the upstream end of the hutch. The user can set up his experiment in the downstream half of B2 with the option of using the B2 optical table. The user can make use of radiation in B2 in one of three modes.
Users can also furnish their own symmetrically cut crystals.
The Bragg angle range of this monochromator is between 2 and 28 degrees. By computer control the monochromator can scan over a 1 keV energy range without changing the output beam position.
