Synchrotron Serial Crystallography (SSX) BAG

The aim of this BAG is the development of new methods, hardware and software for different applications in SSX. The new EBS machine is in the privileged position of exploiting flux density previously unmatched at synchrotron beamlines. The increase in photon flux density at the sample position will interest most of the MX beamlines and it is going to be particularly effective for microfocus beamline such as ID23-2 and ID30A3. We plan to further develop different SSX data collection methods and sample delivery devices in the attempt to profit of the characteristic of the new beam and to extend the implementation of automated procedures to simplify the access to SSX methods for the MX community. The methods developed will be eventually applied to the new ID29 ESRF beamline and similar projects under development at other European sources.
