Minutes of High Energy Materials Diffraction Beamline Advisory Group

The High Energy Materials Diffraction BAG advises the MC group leader and APS management on instruments and infrastructure related to high energy x-ray diffraction microscopy (HEDM) and high-energy wide-angle and small-angle diffraction of materials and biomaterials, work primarily done at 1-ID. The membership of this committee can be found on the appropriate XSD web page.

July -- August 2009

The HEMD BAG was sent (view e-mail) a short outline/justification (view here) for the proposed Phase-II upgrade of 1-ID.

The same proposal was also sent to the Structural Characterization BAG (view e-mail). The chair stated in response "I am certainly in favor of the proposed construction of a new hucth so that each of the major programs at 1-ID can have dedicated space and keep their setups in place and optimized. There will clearly be benefits for all of the high energy programs at 1-ID. Repeatedly tearing down setups and rebuilding them is a waste of time and leads to less than optimal experiments."

The BAG wrote a three page memo (view memo) that was sent by e-mail to APS management (view e-mail).
