Abstract
Third-generation synchrotron X-ray sources such as the Advanced Photon Source under construction at Argonne National Laboratory will place s evere heat load demands on the first beamline optical element. A coole d, inclined double-crystal monochromator is one of the instruments bei ng developed at the APS to handle these high heat loads while retainin g the brilliance of the source. Using a modified version of the 1989 V AX/VMS SHADOW code, we examine the properties of the exit beam for two inclined double-crystal monochromator geometries.
