X-ray sources

X-ray sources at DePaul University is documented in the Resource Map at 6 locations: Physics & Astrophysics Laboratories, Advanced Photon Source (APS) — Argonne National Laboratory, and PAL-XFEL — Pohang Accelerator Laboratory. Listed instruments include X-ray tube sources (department), Beamline 7-ID / 7-ID-C — time-resolved X-ray diffraction and spectroscopy (DePaul ultrafast materials work), Beamline 1-BM-C (Sector 1) — powder XRD (Physics MS theses), and PAL-XFEL X-ray Scattering & Spectroscopy (XSS) end-station — hard X-ray FEL experiments. Access depends on the hosting unit.

Follow the resource page for contacts and sources.
