A kHz heat-load shutter for white-beam experiments at synchrotron sources.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A heat-load shutter capable of frequencies from one to several tens of kHz and window times from 10 micros up to 1 ms is described. In the current configuration the water-cooled shutter absorbs approximately 99% of the heat generated by the white beam. It has been successfully used for extended periods synchronized with a Jülich pulse-selector operating at 946 Hz. The temperature of the pulse-selector remained constant during a three-day continuous operation. Flexibility is provided by the interchangeability of the chopper disc.

FIGURE 2. Traditional X-ray scattering experiment setup. Photo Credit: Argonne National Laboratory. In addition to the setup shown in Figure 2, time resolution at BioCARS is provided by precise synchronization of additional beam blocking equipment placed before the sample under test—two rotating disk choppers and a shutter [2]. The X-ray beam is intercepted by a watercooled heat load chopper wh...
متن کاملA fast mechanical shutter for submicrosecond time-resolved synchrotron experiments.
A new high-speed high-repetition-rate X-ray beam shutter for time-resolved photocrystallography at synchrotron sources has been developed and tested. The new design is based on a commercially existing DC servomotor and a frequency-lock control capable linear amplifier. Accurate speed control combined with an air bearing results in extremely low jitter in the motor rotation. Measured jitter at r...
متن کاملThermal deformation of cryogenically cooled silicon crystals under intense X-ray beams: measurement and finite-element predictions of the surface shape
X-ray crystal monochromators exposed to white-beam X-rays in third-generation synchrotron light sources are subject to thermal deformations that must be minimized using an adequate cooling system. A new approach was used to measure the crystal shape profile and slope of several cryogenically cooled (liquid nitrogen) silicon monochromators as a function of beam power in situ and under heat load....
متن کاملStatus of Colddiag: a Cold Vacuum Chamber for Diagnostics
One of the still open issues for the development of superconducting insertion devices is the understanding of the beam heat load. With the aim of measuring the beam heat load to a cold bore and the hope to gain a deeper understanding in the beam heat load mechanisms, a cold vacuum chamber for diagnostics is under construction. The following diagnostics will be implemented: i) retarding field an...

BioCARS, a NIH-supported national user facility for macromolecular time-resolved X-ray crystallography at the Advanced Photon Source (APS), has recently completed commissioning of an upgraded undulator-based beamline optimized for single-shot laser-pump X-ray-probe measurements with time resolution as short as 100 ps. The source consists of two in-line undulators with periods of 23 and 27 mm th...
