BEAM LINE SPECIFICATIONS:   energy range resolution DE/E spot size flux angular acceptance focused 4500 - 30000 eV 0.2 x .43 mm   1.5 mrad unfocused 4500 - 45000 eV 2.0 x 20.0 mm   1.5 mrad
OPTICS:	Bent cylinder, Rh-coated, single crystal Si, M0 mirror Radii: 1500 m (adjustable) x 32.9 mm Cut off energy: 22 keV, Mean angle of incidence: 2.7 mrad
MONOCHROMATOR:	Si(111) f=90° or Si(220) f=90° Liquid nitrogen-cooled, upward reflecting, double-crystal monochromator
ABSORPTION:	508 micron Be, 4.4 m He, 205 micron graphite (fixed), 1016 micron graphite (insertable, user controlled)
INSTRUMENTATION:	Scattering: Detector, ion chambers, current amplifiers, sample positioners, PMTs A Huber 6-circle diffractometer is available for high-resolution x-ray scattering research. The six spectrometer degrees of freedom are (q, C, f) for the sample, and (2-q, q-analyzer, q-analyzer) for the detector. Because of high demand, research is confined to problems that can only be addressed with this unique facility. Typical programs involve intrinsically weak scattering systems, such as two-dimensional arrays and high-resolution 3-D problems. Spectroscopy: Ge array detector, LHe cryostat, ion chambers, PIPS detector, optics rail
DATA ACQUISITION AND ANALYSIS:	Diffractometer Control Software: SUPER Data Acquisition Spectroscopy: XAS-Collect Data Analysis Spectroscopy: EXAFSPAK
