ABSTRACT

  This beamline is a standard X-ray beamline with a 32 mm-period linear undulator and a liquid-nitrogen cooled monochromator. Intense X-rays up to 80 keV can be produced and more than 30 kinds of nuclear levels exist in this energy range mainly. The following researches of nuclear resonant scattering are performed using the high-resolution optics and the time differential measurements in the several-bunch operation; Study of dynamics in materials using nuclear inelastic scattering; Time domain Mössbauer spectroscopy; Coherent X-ray optics using nuclear resonant scattering (NRS).
  The following researches are also performed using the multi high-precision goniometer system; NEET, surface study; X-ray non-linear phenomena and; Residual strain analysis.

EXPERIMENTAL STATIONS

 We have two experimental hutches. High-resolution monochromators used for the research using nuclear resonant scattering are arranged on these high precision goniometers In the Experimental Hutch 1. Three kinds of high-resolution monochromators for 14.4 keV X-rays with different energy resolutions and that for 6.2, 21.5, 22.5 and 29.8 keV X-rays are available at BL09XU. Their specifications and the measured performance are listed in Table 1, respectively. Samples are set with temperature control in Experimental Hutch 2. A nuclear resonant inelastic scattering spectrum measured by iron foil is shown in Fig.2
