Source
In-vacuum undulator (IVU21)
The photon source of the XALOC beamline is an in-vacuum undulator placed in a medium straight section of the ALBA storage ring. The undulator is fully tunable in the useful energy range for Macromolecular Crystallography experiments (5.5 - 22 keV).
The undulator now operative at the storage ring.
