Abstract:
A new high-speed X-ray beam chopper, which can be phase locked to the temporal structure of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) storage ring, has been developed and tested. The open window time of the chopper is 2450 ns, which corresponds to approximately 67% of the revolution time of the APS storage ring. By phase locking the rotation of the beam chopper to the storage-ring orbital frequency, any portion of the storage-ring fill pattern can be positioned within the beam-chopper transmission-time window.
