Dear Colleagues, Correct flux in our mini-beam announcement (see below) should have been 1-2x1011. Originally quoted flux is that of a full beam. We apologize for the confusion.

We have implemented an apparatus to produce a strong, stable X-ray mini-beam. The apparatus is rapidly interchangeable with our standard beam. The flux and stability of the mini-beam have allowed successful data collection from macromolecule crystals of 5-10 micron size. We have tested the apparatus on several challenging projects with excellent results. Properties of the mini-beam are listed below. Size: user choice of 5 microns or 10 microns Flux: 1-2x10^13 photons/sec Flux stability: < 1% RMS over one minute; < 3% drift over 12 hours Beam time applications for the 5-10 micron mini-beam on GM/CA beamlines 23-ID-B and 23-ID-D can be made through the APS proposal system at http://www.aps.anl.gov/Users/Become_A_User/Getting_Started/index.html or by contacting Sheila Trznadel at strzna...@anl.gov or +1-630-252-0662.
