Generated from the descriptor

This page is generated from the descriptor at deployments/fxi/beamline.yaml. Edit the descriptor, not this page.

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: NSLS2/fxi-profile-collection.

Enclosures

Enclosure Role Facility Permit signal
18-IDA optics-hutch nsls2 confirm: only the PPS photon-shutter status XF:18IDA-PPS{PSh}Pos-Sts is in source; the PSS search-and-secure permit leaf is unknown (PSS-1)
18-IDB experiment-hutch nsls2 confirm: PSS search-and-secure permit leaf unknown; the XF:18ID1-ES namespace may be a distinct endstation area (ENC-1)

The beamline

A full-field transmission X-ray microscope: it floods the sample and images the whole field at once (fly and step tomography, radiography, XANES), the full-field counterpart to HXN's scanning probe.

  • 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.

Not yet documented

This beamline has no Operations runbook and no live Experiment view, because CORA does not drive it yet. Both pages describe what an operator does with a running system, so writing them for a beamline CORA only models would be invention rather than documentation. The pilot at 2-BM carries both, and shows the shape they take once a deployment goes live.
