SPring-8, the large synchrotron radiation facility

Inquiry number

INS-0000001375

ABSTRACT

The beamline 47XU was designed for application to various imaging technologies. Therefore high flux density and clean X-ray beam can be used.

BL47XU is mainly used for the experiments of micro-tomography in the hard X-ray region. However, some space is left for any kinds of experiments which require high flux and/or clean X-ray beam.

SOURCE AND OPTICS

The light source is standard-type "in-vacuum" planar undulator. The periodic length is 32 mm and the number of the period is 140. The fundamental radiation covers the energy range from 5.9 to 18.9 keV by tuning the gap from 9.6 to 50.0 mm.

A front-end slit is placed at 28.9 m from the source point.The maximum aperture is 1mm × 1mm.

Monochromator is "SPring-8 standard" double crystal monochromator placed at 36 m from the source point. The liquid nitrogen cooling system developed at this beamline is employed. The range of rotatable angle is 3 - 22 degree. That is correnpond to 37.7 - 5.2 keV with Si(111) symmetric Bragg reflection.
