Dear all, Please note the approaching deadline for submission of Long-Term Projects (LTP) and Block Allocation Group (BAG) proposals for DESY beamline P11 at the PETRA III synchrotron in Hamburg.
The call is open until Monday, 20 January 2020 (until midnight local Hamburg time, UTC+1) and relates to beamtime to be allocated during the period 2020 (second half) - 2022 (first half). Detailed information, preparation guidelines and templates for LTP and BAG proposals are provided here: https://photon-science.desy.de/users_area/user_guide/select_the_proposal_type Beamline P11 is dedicated to structural investigations of biological samples from atomic to micrometer length scales and currently provides two experimental endstations: an X-ray microscope (under construction) and a crystallography experiment which is in user operation since 2013. Specific features of the P11 crystallography endstation: • High photon flux (1.3 × 10^13 ph/s at 12 keV) at the sample position • Broad energy range from 5.5 - 28 keV • Full SAD/MAD capability • High-precision single axis goniostat • Fast data collection, currently via Pilatus 6M detector (25 Hz frame rate, 154 – 2000 mm sample-to-detector distance), from March 2020 on via Eiger2 16M detector (133 Hz frame rate) • Fast automatic sample changer (20 s) with uni-puck compatibility and 368 sample storage capacity • Cryo-shutter for crystal annealing • Beam size tunability from 4 × 9 µm² (microfocus) to 300 × 300 µm² (flat beam) within a minute • Microbeam capability (4 × 9 µm² focal spot with 1.3 × 10^13 ph/s photon flux and 1 × 1 µm² with 2 × 10^11 ph/s) • Serial synchrotron crystallography using liquid sample delivery like (tape-drive setup) and fixed targets (microporous Si-chips) • Parallel beam option for large unit cell systems • Data collection via Python-based GUI • Automated data processing with XDSAPP • 40 core workgroup server for fast data processing • Wet lab for sample preparation For detailed information about our experimental setup please visit our homepage http://photon-science.desy.de/facilities/petra_iii/beamlines/p11_bio_imaging_and_diffraction On behalf of the P11 team, Johanna Johanna Hakanpää, PhD Scientist, Beamline P11 (PETRA III) Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY Notkestrasse 85 22607 Hamburg Germany Phone: +49 40 8998 5756 Email: johanna.hakan...@desy.de ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1
