BAMline - Beamline at Berliner Elektronenspeicherring (BESSY)


 

The first hard X-ray beamline at Bessy II is installed by BAM and PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt - National Institute of Natural and Engineering Sciences) at a superconducting 7T wavelength shifter. The main optical elements of the beamline are a double-multilayer-monochromator and a double-crystal-monochromator. The two devices can be used separately or in-line.

Main applications of monochromatic radiation with photon energies up to 50 keV are X-ray fluorescence analysis, micro-computed tomography, X-ray topography, detector calibration and reflectometry.
