PILATUS 2M A Detector for Small Angle X-ray Scattering
For the (coherent) small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) beamline X12SA of the Swiss Light Source at the Paul Scherrer Institut, a novel X-ray detector is built, the PILATUS 2M. Contributions in module fabrication, detector assembly, characterization and calibration are covered within the framework of this thesis. Furthermore, data analysis of a particular SAXS experiment demonstrating the perfor...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent macromolecular X-ray crystallography
X-ray crystallography provides structural details of biological macromolecules. Whereas routine data are collected close to 100 K in order to mitigate radiation damage, more exotic temperature-controlled experiments in a broader temperature range from 15 K to room temperature can provide both dynamical and structural insights. Here, the dynamical behaviour of crystalline macromolecules and thei...
متن کاملEIGER detector: application in macromolecular crystallography
The development of single-photon-counting detectors, such as the PILATUS, has been a major recent breakthrough in macromolecular crystallography, enabling noise-free detection and novel data-acquisition modes. The new EIGER detector features a pixel size of 75 × 75 µm, frame rates of up to 3000 Hz and a dead time as low as 3.8 µs. An EIGER 1M and EIGER 16M were tested on Swiss Light Source beam...
متن کاملProtein crystallography 1. The frontiers of time-resolved macromolecular crystallography: movies and chirped X-ray pulses
Three important frontiers of ultrafast time-resolved macromolecular crystallography are presented: extension of this technique to other biological systems; further developments in the elucidation of mechanism through the analysis of time-dependent movies to extract the underlying, time-independent, intermediate structures; and enhanced time resolution. The last is intimately linked with the nat...
