The small-angle X-ray scattering beamline BioMUR at the Kurchatov synchrotron radiation source

摘要

A small-angle X-ray scattering beamline BioMUR has been constructed and is now in operation at the Kurchatov synchrotron radiation source (Moscow Russian Federation). Using X-ray optic elements and equipment of the former beamlines DICSY (Kurchatov source) and X33 (EMBL c/o DESY) Hamburg, Germany, BioMUR has been commissioned to deliver an optimized configuration that provides a significant improvement in the quality of small-angle scattering patterns at the Kurchatov synchrotron radiation source. It allows one to study a wide spectrum of samples at different conditions using the automated control software.
