particle
and astrophysics, energy and environmental research as well as on biology
and medicine.
The Swiss Light Source (SLS) is one of the most advanced radiation sources
worldwide. The SLS operates two state-of-the-art undulator beam lines for
protein crystallography. The Macromolecular Crystallography group is
