Proposal FAQs
Beamline I11 Questions
The standard answers for the beamsize, energy (or wavelength, λ = 0.827 Å) and lowest angle shown below are for the normal user operation. These are default setting for the beamline. If you have different requirements, please contact beamline staff before submitting your proposal.
The choice of detectors are:
(i) High resolution mode: Multi-analysing crystals (MAC): x5 MAC-arms with 45 MAC channels. Typical collection time per powder pattern: 15 - 60 minutes.
(ii) Time-resolved mode: PSD (Mythen2). Typical collection time per powder pattern: s - minutes.
Please select one or both if required.
