NSLS-II Seminar

"Design, Construction and Hard Won Lessons at the Australian Synchrotron"

Presented by Bradley Mountford, Australian Synchrotron, Australia

Thursday, August 13, 2009, 11:00 am — NSLS-II Seminar Room, Bldg. 817

The Australian Synchrotron is a 3rd Generation light source which has been receiving users since 2007. The topics of this presentation will range from the design and construction of the machine with attention to the storage ring vacuum system and frontends, and then move on to a detailed look at the design and construction of the SAXS/WAXS Endstation. A summary will be made of design projects currently under way which include a Multi Crystal Analyzer for use on the Powder Diffraction Beamline and a new Infrared Branchline from the existing Beamline to a new second microscope. The presentation will conclude with a discussion on lessons learnt in design and commissioning by presenting the more dramatic equipment failures experienced at the Australian Synchrotron.
