16-BM-B is a polychromatic beamline that offers a range of measurements including energy dispersive diffraction, sound velocity, radiography, and PDF of amorphous materials at high pressure-high temperature conditions with the Paris-Edinburgh Cell. The station is optimized for investigations requiring a large scattering volume such as the study of non-crystalline materials and melts, and for determination of bulk macroscopic properties. 16-BM-D is a station dedicated for white/pink/monochromatic, Laue, micro-diffraction. The experimental setup is specially designed for applications that use switchable mono and white beam diffraction techniques from samples in a diamond anvil cell.

Special Capabilities
(1) Combined radiography, sound velocity measurements and Energy Dispersive X-ray Diffraction (EDXD) from a sample in a PEC in 16BM-B. (2) Ability to obtain PDF over a large Q range using EDXD at ultrahigh pressures in a double stage PEC in 16-BM-B. (3) Viscosity of high temperature melts using the falling sphere technique. (4) Laue diffraction in a diamond anvil cell at energies as high as 90 keV to obtain a large data set from a crystal overcoming the geometric limitations of the cell assembly. (5) Multi-position detector arm allows Laue diffraction up to a 90 degrees detector geometry that allows mapping residual strain in samples under non-hydrostatic stresses.
