Techniques

What 2-BM can do. Each technique runs a portable Catalog Method, bound to this beamline's hardware and Operations. This function view survives equipment swaps.

Imaging

All realize cora.capability.tomography and need the Microscope detector and the Sample tower.

Technique	Catalog method	Notes
Tomography	tomography	step-scan projections over a rotation
Continuous-rotation tomography	continuous_rotation_tomography	fly-scan, rotation never stops
Streaming tomography	streaming_tomography	projections streamed for live reconstruction
Mosaic tomography	mosaic_tomography	XY tiling for a field wider than the detector

Laminography is a tomography Plan run at a tilt setpoint on the same tower, not a separate Method.

Energy

Technique	Catalog method	Notes
Energy change (Mono / Pink)	beamline_energy_change	drives the monochromator and mirror to a configured energy

Run it via Operations: the energy_setting Procedure and recipe.

Supporting operations

Run as Procedures and Recipes under Operations:

Capability	Catalog methods
alignment	resolution_alignment, focus_alignment, center_alignment, roll_alignment, pitch_alignment
characterization	sensitivity_characterization, energy_characterization
acquisition	dark_field, flat_field
maintenance	motor_homing, hexapod_reboot
