BM20 (ROBL) to close August-November 2011 for optics upgrade

last modified 09-03-2011 17:09

The German CRG Rossendorf Beamline (ROBL, BM20) will be closed for a major optics upgrade in August-September, followed by hot commissioning in October-November. During this period, the beamline will not be available for user experiments.

Highlights from the CRG beamlines: A hydrogen reservoir made of … mostly hydrogen; Complex patterns in liquid crystals; Untangling the chemical bonding in high-pressure γ-B28 boron; more
