Having completed a major upgrade, CHESS (Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source)
is accepting proposals for beamtime. Of most interest to this community:
BioSAXS station (formerly G1) - on-site or mail-in BioSAXS, featuring:
* 7-14 KeV, standard beam size 250x200 micron, smaller beam available. In
commissioning experiment with 50 mA particle beam, 14 KeV X-rays, got 1.4E11
ph/s through 80x80 micron aperture
* SAXS/WAXS, loading from multiwell trays or effluent from column
(size-exclusion, ion-exchange, high pressure)
* in-line DLS/MALS
* high-pressure cell
* microfluidic cell for time-resolved experiments
* user-friendly, flexible, experimental control system
* RAW data processing system
* excellent staff support
* coming soon, in-vacuum EIGER 4M detector
FlexX station - on-site or remote macromolecular crystallography, featuring:
* 7-14 KeV, undulator source with multilayer monochromator for high flux. In
commissioning, with 50 mA particle beam, measured 2E11 ph/s through 100x100
micron aperture
* single-axis goniostat, PILATUS3 6M detector, BAM2 automounter
* standard crystallography available when CHESS comes up in October,
fixed-target serial crystallography in early 2020
* high pressure cryocooling available
* data collection at high pressure using a diamond anvil cell under development
* excellent staff support
* we welcome "non-standard" experiments!
