Improved metrology for better capillary optics
CHESS has a unique drawing tower facility to fabricate glass capillaries that can be used in a variety of settings to focus or prefocus x-ray beams down to micron-level sizes.
High-pressure cryocooler is local company's new product
A technology developed by Cornell scientists that prepares proteins for X-ray crystallography has made its way into the world marketplace:
The CHESS Sample Environment Lab
In order to further the development of Real-Time In-situ Multiprobe (RIM) experiments for the Designer Solids and Organic Electronics Program at CHESS D1 station and others, the CHESS Sample Environment Lab has been established in room 171, the former User Computer Room.
Science Cabaret: Big Science, Small Problems!

How low does the emittance of a storage ring have to be to make a fully coherent x-ray source?
Transverse or spatial coherence is one of the key metrics used to characterize the x-ray beams generated by 4th generation light sources.
New undulators developed and tested at CHESS
The CHESS Compact Undulator (CCU) program started several years ago with the development of Delta undulators for an ERL, culminating with performance tests of new undulators and x-ray optics this past Fall at A2.
