Source

The incident beam, produced, conditioned, and defined before the sample. A walk along the source-stage devices; the sample and detection stages are documented as their own composed-fixture pages, the controllers that drive these devices are on the Controls page, and the supplies they draw on are in Operations. Each device pairs its human name with the EPICS handle, its key specs, and whether it is field replaceable. new marks a device not yet modeled in CORA; confirm marks a value taken from the docs that staff have not yet verified.

Insertion devices

The two elliptically-polarizing undulators on the SR:C21-ID straight.

Enclosure: 21-ID-A.

Note

Two InsertionDevice Assets; each adds a polarization (phase) axis beyond gap, carried as a setting (SRC-1).

Undulator_1 InsertionDevice SR:C21-ID:G1A{EPU:1 EPU57 elliptically-polarizing undulator (gap + phase); period and polarization model are SRC-1 new confirm

Optics

The front-end mirror, the polarization diagnostic, and the front-end / FOE shutters.

Enclosure: 21-ID-A.

Note

M1 is the first mirror; Diagon is the soft X-ray polarization diagnostic (DIAG-1).

Monochromator

The plane-grating monochromator that selects the soft X-ray energy, the M3 mirror, and the PGM slits.

Enclosure: 21-ID-B.

Note

PGM is the plane-grating monochromator: a premirror (Mirror_Pitch) plus an interchangeable grating (Grating_Pitch / Grating_Trans) at a fixed-focus c-value (Focus_Const) set the energy. It reuses the catalog GratingMonochromator Family (ESM is the 3rd soft X-ray PGM after SIX + CSX). M3 is a hexapod-mounted mirror.

Refocusing

The KB refocusing pair, the M4B mirror, the exit slits that set the energy resolution, and the branch shutters.

Enclosure: 21-ID-C.

Note

M4A is the KB focusing pair, M4B a hexapod mirror; the A/B exit slits are the PGM resolution-defining elements for the two endstation branches (OPT-1, OPT-2).
