Accepted 12 May 2025

High-luminosity meV-resolution single-shot hard X-ray spectrograph for cavity-based X-ray free-electron lasers


Accepted 6 May 2025

Hyper-resolution in X-ray emission spectroscopy: integrating extended-range high energy resolution fluorescence detection and multiple-crystal spectrometry with advanced binary data splicing

A robust integration is introduced of the extended-range high energy resolution fluorescence detection technique, multiple-crystal spectrometers and binary data splicing techniques for the further refinement of spectra in X-ray emission spectroscopy, revealing deeper insights into material properties and atomic transitions.

A versatile framework for attitude tuning of beamlines at light source facilities

A versatile Mamba-based software framework for automated attitude tuning of beamlines is reported, which is expected to be able to cover most attitude-tuning needs (beam focusing, sample alignment etc.) in a simple and maintainable way. As well as a few real-world examples at the High Energy Photon Source and Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility, both in China, also presented is a virtual-beamline mechanism based on easily customisable simulated detectors and motors.

AF4-to-SAXS: expanded characterization of nanoparticles and proteins at the P12 BioSAXS beamline

By coupling asymmetrical-flow field-flow fractionation to small-angle X-ray scattering (AF4–SAXS), we enable precise, size-resolved analysis of polydisperse samples. Our automated AF4–SAXS system at the EMBL P12 beamline streamlines workflows, making advanced characterization accessible to both novice and experienced users, with principles adaptable to other facilities.

Fastosh: a software for the treatment of XAFS datasets of environmental relevance or acquired in operando conditions


Accepted 9 April 2025

Structural biology at the National Synchrotron Light Source II

We describe the structural biology resources available at the National Synchrotron Light Source II at Brookhaven National Laboratory and ponder the future for automated experiments, micro-focusing crystallography and structure prediction to inform structural biology studies.

50th Anniversary of the Stanford SSRLSynchrotron Radiation and protein crystallography initiative

We provide a historical introduction, our thoughts on the current trends including based on papers in this special issue of the Journal of Synchrotron Radiation celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Stanford SSRL synchrotron radiation and protein crystallography initiative led by Keith Hodgson.
