Figure 4
The NSLS X9 beamline was especially designed to acquire both SAXS and WAXS X-ray scattering data from a single exposure. The top-left panel indicates the position of the WAXS and the SAXS detectors relative to the X-ray beam. The top-right panel is a view from the X-ray beam in the direction of the detectors. This view indicates the overlapping region, which can be seen from the SAXS images (bottom-right panel, left image) cover by the WAXS detector (bottom-right panel, right image). The SAXS and WAXS data overlap between ∼0.12 and 0.2 Å−1 and are background-subtracted and combined automatically using beamline software, as shown by the data collected from a 3.7 mg ml−1 lysozyme solution (bottom-left). |
