SOLCRYS - under construction

The SOLCRYS (MX) beamline will use hard X-rays for structural studies of proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules.

The planned research capabilities of the MX end station include wavelength tunability for multiwavelength anomalous diffraction (MAD) experiments and a high flux mode for standard (routine) diffraction data collection for protein crystals.
