Figure 1
Schematic diagram with some of the key IMBL components: (a) the front-end (FE) to hutch 1B; (b) hutch 1B to hutch 2B; (c) the short transfer line (STL) to hutch 3B. Both pink-beam and monochromatic-beam (coloured green) scenarios are displayed. There are different (typical) experimental set-ups in hutches 1B, 2B and 3B: `step-and-shoot' mode radiotherapy, (pink-beam) tomography, and fast (monochromatic beam) imaging of large samples, respectively. The large horizontal cylinders indicate where the X-ray beam is always in vacuo. The beamline photon and safety shutters, located immediately upstream and downstream of the fast (MRT) shutter in hutch 1A, respectively, have not been shown here. The distances of key components from the source are shown near the bottom in red. Further details are provided in the text. |
