The SAXS / WAXS Beamline is optimised for transmission SAXS and WAXS for a wide range of sample types.

Endstation of the SAXS / WAXS beamline

The SAXS / WAXS beamline is a highly flexible x-ray scattering facility with purpose-built optics and a very flexible endstation and SAXS camera enable multiple types of experiments. For further information on some of the experiments available at the SAXS / WAXS Beamline, please follow links below:

• Protein & Solution Scattering – measurements are possible through two different setups.

  • Static Solution Samples

  • In-line Size Exclusion Chromatography (HPLC) with coflow setup

     

• Other Transmission SAXS

  • Multi-Well Plates - Transmission

  • Capillary Mounts

  • Solid Samples

     

• Special Cases

  • Grazing Incidence Small Angle X-ray Scattering  (GISAXS)

  • Anomalous Small Angle X-ray Scattering (ASAXS)

  • Specialised Sample Mounts

    • Tensile Stage

    • Gases

    • Compressed Air

    • High Temperature & High Pressure

  • User Provided Sample Mounts
