Frequently asked questions

How do I set the slit sizes on the BL17C1 beamline?

Select the desired aperture from the three fixed slit options of 0.5 mm, 1 mm, or 4 mm as described in the slit configuration section.

What beamline lengths are available for experiments?

The BL17C1 beamline can be configured with either a 15 cm or a 30 cm length, selectable via the motor controls.

How is the flowmeter calibrated for the beamline?

Use the calibration table (Table 2) which lists flowmeter readings for He, N₂, Ar, and Kr at various flow rates; the calibration was performed at an inlet pressure of 13 psig.
