Skip to main content. Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source. CHESS Becomes a 3rd Generation Synchrotron! With first light passing through the x-ray optics and into the hutch on Wednesday, September 24, CHESS enters a new era as a 3rd Generation Source! The staff made a Herculean effort and in just 10 short weeks, removed the old wiggler, reconfigured CESR, installed two Cornell Compact Undulators, and completely rebuilt the A-line front end and optics. Joel Brock, CHESS, Cornell University. Local studen...

Automounters are intended to help maximize throughput at synchrotron beam lines where heavy shielding and safety interlocks slow manual access to the experiment. A sizable number of crystals can be stored in the hutch, accessed randomly, mounted and dismounted; all without entering the hutch. Remote data collection at crystallography beamlines.

Read this if you are interested in trying high pressure cryocooling. Steps in standard pressure-cooling:. Mount sample (usually a crystal in oil, but can be anything that fits in the pressure tubing) on a special pin (1) with a piece of steel piano wire attached to the base. Place up to 3 tubes in a bath partially filled with liquid nitrogen (3).
