ALBA¶
ALBA is a Federation Facility (FacilityKind = Site): the home for the facility-level facts an experiment inherits but does not own. The beamlines it hosts link up to this page rather than restating it.
Generated from the site descriptor
This page is generated from deployments/alba/site.yaml. Edit the descriptor, not this page.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Facility code | alba |
| Institution | ALBA Synchrotron (CELLS) |
| Control plane | Tango / Sardana / Taurus |
| Fleet role | Off-roadmap generalization |
| Beamlines | 1 |
The beamlines¶
What CORA models at ALBA. Each row's badges and one-line summary are read from the beamline's own descriptor; follow the link for the full model.
| Beamline | Maturity | Evidence | Coverage | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FAXTOR | Model | Narrative | Full | BL31 fast X-ray micro-CT and radiography (continuous-rotation tomography up to 20 Hz) on a multipole wiggler; reuses the tomography Families and Methods, novelty is the Site and its Tango / Sardana control plane |
The techniques adapted here¶
A Practice is ALBA's facility-tuned form of a cross-facility Method: the ISA-88 Site Recipe layer. The Method names a technique abstractly in the Catalog; the Practice is how FAXTOR runs it here. Each row links up to the Method it adapts.
| Practice | Method |
|---|---|
FAXTOR_microtomography_practice |
tomography |
FAXTOR_continuous_tomography_practice |
continuous_rotation_tomography |
Planned: 1 further Practices.
Safety and governance¶
Access at ALBA is gated by the facility safety system (ALBA personnel safety system, pending); the principal roster is pending; no autonomous agents run here today.
How this maps to CORA's model¶
ALBA is a Federation Facility (FacilityKind = Site, facility_code = "alba"); the beamlines above are its root Assets (tier = Unit), and their sub-systems nest below by parent_id. See the CORA model for the aggregate shapes.
