Abstract
An energy dispersive beamline at NSLS was modified to allow magnetic c ircular X-ray dichroism studies. The description of the apparatus is g iven. The new, much more stable, arrangement is tested and compared wi th the previous one. The data acquistion sequence is described. The po larization of the X-ray beam has been characterized by Compton polarim etry. Examples of the magnetic systems studied by MCXD are shown. Limi tations of the experimental arrangement setup for energies above 10 ke V are discussed. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
