SMI¶
small- and wide-angle scattering (SAXS/WAXS) with grazing incidence (GISAXS/GIWAXS), 12-ID; the NSLS-II twin of Diamond i22, modelled from public beamline config.

Generated from the descriptor
This page is generated from the descriptor at deployments/smi/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/smi-profile-collection.
Enclosures¶
| Enclosure | Role | Facility | Permit signal |
|---|---|---|---|
12-ID-A |
optics-hutch | nsls2 |
confirm: PSS search-and-secure permit leaf not in source; the front-end photon shutter is XF:12IDA-PPS:2{PSh} (PSS-1) |
12-ID-C |
experiment-hutch | nsls2 |
confirm: PSS permit leaf unknown; 12-ID-C is the experiment hutch carrying the sample, the in-vacuum flight path, and the SAXS / WAXS detectors (PSS-1) |
The beamline¶
The NSLS-II twin of Diamond I22 scattering, adding grazing-incidence geometry and in-situ soft-matter cells: two area detectors read at once, the detector distance setting Q.
- 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.
