TPS 05A

protein microcrystallography (rotation MX) on the same MD3 + ISARA kit with a DECTRIS EIGER2 X 9M; the MX-cluster sibling of 07A, a reuse-and-reinforce deployment coining no new vocabulary, modelled from the SPXF pages + the 2025 cluster paper (thinner source, PV namespace inferred).

Property Value
Facility NSRRC (EPICS (Blu-Ice / DCSS))

Generated from the descriptor

This page is generated from the descriptor at deployments/tps-05a/beamline.yaml. Edit the descriptor, not this page.

The device families are inferred from public facility pages and papers; no control handles or vendor models are public, so every value is carried confirm until staff verify it. Source: nsrrcspxf docs.

Enclosures

Enclosure Role Facility Permit signal
TPS-05A-OH optics-hutch nsrrc confirm: PSS permit leaf not in public source; the optics hutch carries the DCM and beam-conditioning optics (PSS-1, ENC-1)
TPS-05A-EH experiment-hutch nsrrc confirm: PSS permit leaf not in public source; the experiment hutch carries the MD3 microdiffractometer, the EIGER2 X 9M, and the ISARA robot (PSS-1, ENC-1)

The beamline

NSRRC's protein-microcrystallography beamline, the MX-cluster sibling of TPS 07A: the same Blu-Ice / DCSS stack and MD3 + ISARA kit with a DECTRIS EIGER2 X 9M detector.

  • 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.
