Gazetteer of SR workstations for macromolecular crystallography

There is now a considerable number of SR instruments which have been or are being used for protein crystallography at various SR sources around the world (table 5.5 documents the existing ones). In this section a survey is made of the various instruments. An extensive discussion of mirror-monochromator cameras used for small angle diffraction at DESY, NINA, SPEAR, VEPP-3 and DORIS has been given by Rosenbaum and Holmes (1980). 

The intensity at the focus provided by each of the instruments can be compared with the intensity of a laboratory rotating anode (nickel filtered, Elliott GX6) beam behind a 0.3 mm diameter collimator of 9x 108 photons s-1 mm-2 (Harmsen, Leberman and Schultz 1976). 

The order of the instruments quoted tries to follow a temporal line of development of SR sources rather than of individual instruments in this way several instruments at one storage ring or synchrotron are presented together, even though some will still be under construction, so as to give a coherent view of what is available at each source.
