Each button is responsible for opening a different software.
Button | Software |
---|---|
SPEC | spec software for instrument control and data acquisition |
SL | detector data processing |
DET | detector camera logging |
TVX | detector control software |
BIO | BioSAXS instrument control |
RAW | BioXtas RAW for data visualization and analysis |

The Bio-Nordic is equipped with a Dectris hybrid photon counting detector (PILATUS3 Dectris EIGER2 R 300K1M) offering micrometric spacial resolution (172 μm x 172 μm75 µm x 75 µm) and a wide dynamic range and a large pixel array (1M pixels). The detector is water-cooled and installed in a vacuum chamber therefore eliminating air scattering.
...
The detector is installed on rails and can therefore be positioned at any desired distance from the sample. The current detector configurations available are listed in the table below.
Config name | # | description | sample-detector distance, mm | q-range, Å−1 | D-range, Å |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
WAXS_INT | 1 | wide angle | 80 | 0.0505-3.4451 | 2-120 |
MAXS_INT | 2 | medium angle | 600 | 0.0107-0.5807 | 10-580 |
SAXS_INT | 3 | small angle | 1022 | 0.0071-0.3438 | 20-880 |
ESAXS_INT | 4 | extremely small angle | 1418 | 0.0051-0.2491 | 25-1200 |
Liquid handling robot
A high-throughput robot installed on the Bio-Nordic enables screening refrigerated 96-well plates by automating liquid handling. Less than 20 μl is required per sample.
