SLS Machine parameters

Machine Parameters  
Ring energy 2.4 GeV
Ring current 400 mA

TOMCAT Source Characteristics

TOMCAT gets its X-ray photons from a 2.9 Tesla superbending magnet. This leads to a critical energy of 11.1 keV, which is much higher than the 5.4 keV of the normal bending magnets installed in the SLS ring. As a result, the flux at high energies is increased dramatically, as shown in the following figure.
