ABSTRACT

  The bending-magnet beamline is allocated to medical applications and various imaging techniques in the energy range of 5-113 keV. The main optics is a fixed-exit double crystal monochromator. The X-ray beam produced by the bending magnet passes out of the experimental hall surrounding the storage ring and enters the Medium-length Beamline Facility. The experiments are performed in the experimental hall and the Medium-length Beamline Facility for alternative operations.

AREA OF RESEARCH

X-ray micro-CT/laminography, X-ray phase tomography, X-ray real-time imaging(absorption or refraction contrast), ultra-fast X-ray radiography and X-ray micro-angiography.
Small-animal experiments for medical research.
