Congratulations! To make your experimental time as productive as possible, some forward planning is necessary. This page will help with preparing a successful experiment.
As soon as you receive a successful result from the panel, the User Office will be in touch via UAS. UAS will help guide you through the necessary information you will need to supply in preparation for your experiment. Please do fill this in by the deadlines given as this smooths the way through to your experiment.
If you are aware of any impending time conflicts or other problems that may make your experiment harder to schedule, including a significant change to your experimental method or the absence of a team member, please notify the beamline team as soon as possible.
Please check over the details of your experiment in consultation with the Technical Specification pages of the beamline (Transmission SAXS, Microfocus SAXS, GiSAXS, USAXS, or SAXS Tensor Tomography), as well as the details of available sample environments. Peripheral laboratory facilities are described on the Support Facilities pages of this site.
Diamond technical staff will need at least 4 weeks' notice of any modification or custom sample design, including mounting adapter plates to our standard M6 25mm pitch breadboard, brackets, and sample cells. We can help with simple machining only. If this will be necessary, please discuss this with your local contact as soon as possible.
If you haven't already discussed your experiment with your local beamline contact, please get in touch 1-2 months before your scheduled beamtime. They will need to know:
