Crystallography Beam Lines |

 |
Computers |
MacCHESS data collection and
crystal centering computers at each beamline have been
replaced with Linux machines. An additional two Linux machines
are located at each beamline for data processing and backup.
More Linux computers may be found in the computer room, where
two of the Linux machines are equipped for 'stereo' graphical
use.

The temperature is
usually set to 100 K, but can be varied from 80 K to 400 K. The
systems can be programmed to cool down or warm up with a
specific gradient, reach certain set points and hold these for a
certain amount of time. The cold gas flow is variable and can be
set to either 5 or 10 L/min (turbo mode). For temperatures below
100 K the system automatically adjusts the flow to 10 L/min, for
temperatures above 100 K a flow of 5L/min is sufficient to
maintain the temperature within 0.1 K. The cold gas flow can be
positioned in many different ways, from vertical to horizontal.
Accurate alignment is being done using the three positioners at
the support stand with the aid of a nozzle alignment tool.
