This multi-purpose hard X-ray materials science beamline will be installed at one beamport of the Superconducting Asymmetric Wiggler at the DELTA facility in Dortmund. It will be well suited for X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scattering experiments in a wide energy range.

 

The X-ray source

The superconducting 5 Tesla asymmetric wiggler SAW at the 1.5 GeV electron storage ring DELTA at the University of Dortmund is used as light source for the beamline. It generates a high flux X-ray beam for the experiments with circular or linear polarisation.
