Bz. Dong et al., STATUS OF THE SMALL-ANGLE SCATTERING STATION AT THE BEIJING SYNCHROTRON-RADIATION FACILITY, Journal of applied crystallography, 30(2), 1997, pp. 877-879
Beamline 4B9A at the Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility provides f
ocused monochromatic radiation in an energy range of 3-10 keV. The sma
ll-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) station that is located at the end of
the beamline is equipped with a SAXS camera, a position-sensitive det
ector, an on-line data-acquisition and control system and an alignment
carriage. Studies in molecular biology and materials science have bee
n performed at the station. Some results of SAXS studies of biomembran
es are described. The experiments confirm that the angular resolution
is better than 0.5 mrad with this setting.
