P07 - High Energy Materials Science Beamline

The HEMS beamline at PETRA III satisfies high energy x-ray diffraction (XRD) and imaging techniques: it is tunable in the range 30-200 keV and optimized for micro- meter focusing with compound refractive lenses (CRLs). In-house and development activities are shared between HZG and DESY, where HZG is focussing on engineering materials science applications with two hutches and DESY operates one hutch for hard XRD experiments.  

HEMS has partly been operational since summer 2010. Regular user operation started June 2011, the last dedicated instrumentation (3D-XRD grain mapping) has been commissioned end of 2013.
