Beamline optics

The ForMAX beamline is equipped with two horizontally deflecting monochromators: either a “high-resolution” double crystal monochromator (FMB Oxford) or a “high-flux” double multilayer monochromator (Axilon). The former is the standard…

ICE Endstation

The ICE (Ions in Coincidence with Electrons) end station is a mobile end station that is designed to be compatible with a number of MAX IV LDM-relevant beamlines. By using a combination of multi-coincidence…

Advanced Rheological Testing

Most materials are viscoelastic, i.e., they exhibit both viscous and elastic properties upon deformation. This also holds true for most materials studied at the CoSAXS and ForMAX beamlines. While the…

Experimental station

The experimental station is an in-house design, tailored to the specific needs of ForMAX’s user community. A key feature of ForMAX is the combination of full-field tomography and (scanning) SWAXS….

Review process: Standard access
