Bernina

hard X-ray femtosecond pump-probe diffraction / scattering on two reconfigurable diffractometers (GPS six-circle, XRD You-geometry); the second co-equal station on the shared Aramis source, makes the shared-switched-source seam concrete, reuses the graduated Diffractometer Assembly; a deliberately partial first cut (eco), the live device config is externalized. A deliberately partial first cut.

Property Value
Facility PSI (EPICS (SLS) + eco / slic (SwissFEL))
Source free-electron-laser
Modelled reverse-engineered, partial coverage

The device handles are read from the facility's public controls configuration and verified against it; vendor parts, energies, and physical positions are not in it and are carried confirm until beamline staff verify them. Source: paulscherrerinstitute/eco.

The beamline

A hard X-ray XFEL diffractometer platform sharing the Aramis source with Alvra and Cristallina; the first deployment to make the switched-shared-source seam concrete as a second co-equal station.

  • Source: the beam, produced and conditioned before the sample.
  • Sample: the sample environment and its positioning.
  • Detector: what records the beam after the sample.
  • Controls: the control plane CORA's edge conducts over.
