Dear William,
at the ESRF we have a Helical characterisation workflow that will
calculate a strategy based on the observed diffraction patterns and the
distance between 2 points selected on a crystal, best wishes, Matt.

Dear all,
Does anyone have experience in maximising anomalous signal during a
helical/line scan? Most (all?) automated data collection strategies
in
synchrotrons seem to work on a single point of a crystal but don't
give strategies for line scan. Would it be advisable to increase the
recommended transmission as radiation is spread along the crystal? If
the strategy suggests us to use 10% transmission (100% = 2x10^11
ph/s)
for a 360-degree collection on a single point, to what amount should
I
increase say along a 200 micron scan with a 20 micron beam (crystal
dimension 200x100x20)?
Thank you very much in advance for the suggestions!
William
