| Spatial resolution | 2 x 2 µm |
| Energy range (keV) | 2.05 - 20.5 |
| Core energy range (keV) | 5 - 15 |
| Energy resolution (Δ E/E) | Si 111: 1.4 x 10-4 |
| Energy stability (eV) | +/- 0.05 per day |
| Full beam size Flux @ 10 keV at sample (ph/s) | 2 x 1012 |
| Beam size at sample (µm) at full flux | 7 (H) x 1.8 (V) |
| Minimum beam size at sample (µm) | 2 (H) x 1.8 (V) |
| Beam divergence at sample (mrad) (FWHM) | 3 (H) x 2 (V) |
| Beam position stability at sample | <1 µm per day |
• Rh-coated Silicon toroidal mirror sits 25 m from the source focusing the beam horizontally and collimating verticaly 37.5 m from the source.
• A fixed-exit monochromator with one set of Si(111) crystals sits 27.7 m from the source covering the energy range 2.05 – 20.5 keV at an energy resolution of 1.4 x 10-4.
• For higher resolution the Si(333) reflection may be used above 6 keV.
• There is also a pair of plane mirrors for harmonic rejection at low energies ( <4 keV) using either Rh or Ni stripe.
• Kirkpatrick-Baez focusing mirrors are at the end of the beamline. These are non-chromatic, ideal for energy scanning applications like EXAFS (extended X-ray absorption fine structure) operating over the full beamline energy range.
