Presentation Transcript

  1. Metrology session • 17 attendees • 5 talks • Active discussion and many new ideas presented • Probably could have been able to organize more turnout, speakers with additional planning time (many contributors could not attend)

  2. Metrology Two divergent problems identified: • Metrology as required for several diverse scientific applications (ICF, astronomy, materials science) • Metrology for synchrotron instrumentation (mirrors, crystals, etc.) which is likely needed for NSLS-II itself

  3. Guidance from our friends at APS • You can do a lot with a metrology beamline, mostly to benefit synchrotron instrumentation • NSLS-II will need a dedicated metrology program in order to meets its stated objectives (this necessarily includes both at-wavelength and lab-based metrology)

  4. New opportunities presented • Proposed “Virtual National Lab on metrology” may provide limited assistance with metrology needs of NSLS-II • Developments in soft x-ray optics & detectors (mirrors, gratings, polarimeters) desired • Optical temperature sensor desired for cryo-cooled silicon monochromator • LCLS reflective optics requires metrology

  5. Transition plans for existing users • NNSA hopes to fund 1 or two new beamlines at NSLS-II (BM, 3PW), moving upgraded endstations & order sorter – projected utilization at least 70% • NRL would like to move 1 beamline (3PW), expects funds for upgrades to mirrors and gratings – projected utilization roughly 50% • Stonybrook topography group would like a (DW) beamline with vertically widened beam and white light capability – projected utilization roughly 40%
