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 in-vacuum undulator source on the SR:C10-ID straight.

Enclosure: 10-ID-A.

Note

One InsertionDevice Asset; in-vacuum is a per-Asset setting (hxn / chx / srx precedent), not a Family split. Period and type are SRC-1.

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
Undulator InsertionDevice SR:C10-ID:G1{IVU22:1-Ax:Gap}-Mtr IVU22 in-vacuum undulator (gap); the incident-energy pseudo-axis tracks its gap against the DCM Bragg angle (SRC-1) new confirm

Machine

The machine-level source state and the source-orbit feedback, observed not driven.

Enclosure: 10-ID-A.

Note

Observe-only machine state, the loose StorageRing pattern reused from i22 / i03 / i15-1 (MACHINE-1). The undulator-orbit feedback has no clean motion Family and is carried family-less, modelling deferred (FEEDBACK-1, the i03 XBPMFeedback precedent).

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
StorageRing StorageRing SR:OPS-BI{DCCT:1}I:Real-I storage-ring current (DCCT); observe-only machine state, not photon-path flux (MACHINE-1) new confirm
OrbitFeedback confirm: SR:UOFB{...} undulator-orbit feedback (id bump / nudge); modelling deferred, no Family coined at n=1 (FEEDBACK-1) source-orbit feedback construct; carried family-less pending a modelling decision (FEEDBACK-1) new confirm

Front end

The front-end beam-defining slit and the compound-refractive-lens transfocator.

Enclosure: 10-ID-A.

Note

The CRL transfocator reuses the graduated Transfocator catalog Family (a CRL focusing optic; 4-id / 8-id / 9-id / chx / i22); its x/y/th are Asset-layer settings.

front-end compound-refractive-lens transfocator; lens-stack composition is a setting new confirm

Monochromator

The double-crystal monochromator that selects the incident energy, its downstream slit and beam-position monitor, and the incident-energy pseudo-axes.

Enclosure: 10-ID-A.

Note

dcm is the Si(111) double-crystal Bragg monochromator: a crystal DCM binds the catalog Monochromator (unlike SIX's plane-grating PGM, which has no Bragg crystal and coined GratingMonochromator). The incident energy is a PseudoAxis: blE couples the DCM Bragg angle to the undulator gap, dcmE drives the DCM alone (MONO-1).

Si(111) double-crystal monochromator; crystal cut / d-spacing / energy range are MONO-1; the second-crystal offset z2 is a setting new confirm
IncidentEnergy PseudoAxis confirm: blE / dcmE virtual energy axes, 7.835-17.7 keV; blE = DCM Bragg + IVU22 gap tracking, dcmE = DCM only; the partition rule (arcsin(hc/2dE) + gap lookup) is MONO-1 incident-energy pseudo-axis over the DCM and undulator (the 2-BM beamline_energy_change pattern); MONO-1 new confirm

BeamPositionMonitor_A BeamPositionMonitor XF:10IDA-OP{BPM:1 10-ID-A beam-position monitor (x/y + diagnostic foil); NSLS-II-sibling choice (hxn), but the fleet is split with Diagnostic / GenericProbe (DIAG-1/BPM-1); the foil is a setting new confirm

High resolution mono

The high-resolution monochromator that sets the meV incident-energy resolution, its secondary source aperture, and the high-resolution energy pseudo-axis.

Enclosure: 10-ID-B.

Note

hrm2 is the high-resolution monochromator: anatomically still a crystal Bragg mono (up / down crystals), so it binds the catalog Monochromator as a second Asset. Resolution is a tunable setting, not a Family discriminator. The in-line beamstop is a candidate child BeamStop Asset (HRM-1). hrmE is the linear translation-to-energy pseudo-axis (MONO-1).

Endstation optics

The KB refocusing mirrors, the endstation slit, the focusing pinhole, the absorber wheel, and the multi-axis optics manipulator.

Enclosure: 10-ID-D.

Note

vfm / hfm are the vertical / horizontal KB focusing mirrors; orientation is a setting (the SIX Mirror precedent covers even hexapod-mounted mirrors). mcm is a six-DOF coupled manipulator = catalog Hexapod (MCM-1).
