Figure 2
Photograph of SXD taken from above and with the incident neutrons from the ISIS target arriving from the bottom of this view. The octagonal frame supports the sample tank and surrounding detectors. The extra space in the top of the frame above detector 3 allows for off-vertical sample rotations (see text). The housings for the alignment laser and retractable mirror (bottom, nearest the shielding wall) and the pair of collimating jaws (large cylinder) can also be seen. |
