McXtrace: ESRF_BM29

[ Identification | Description | Examples | Input parameters | Links ]

The ESRF_BM29 Instrument

A simple BM29 model at ESRF.

Identification

  • Site: ESRF
  • Author: Martin Cramer Pedersen (mcpe@nbi.dk)
  • Origin: KU-Science
  • Date: October 28th, 2021

Description

Toy model used for testing various sample components for solution-SAXS
mimicking the geometry of the BM29 beamline at ESRF:
https://www.esrf.fr/home/UsersAndScience/Experiments/MX/About_our_beamlines/bm29/beamline-specifications.html

Note that this model does not include much of the beamline optics, instead it emulates their effect
by settgin relevant beam parameters from a model source.
