Unified Data Sheet P21.1

P21.1 - Broad band high-energy Diffraction

P21.1 is specialized in X-ray scattering and diffraction experiments on solids and liquids using high-energy x-rays. At the beamline experiments have been done for a wide range of materials ranging from single crystals to nanocrystalline powders and liquids.
