The Canadian Light Source (CLS) is Canada’s premier source of intense light for research, spanning from the far infrared to hard x-rays. The facility has been in operations for 10 years and in that time has hosted over 2,000 researchers from academic institutions, government, and industry, from 10 provinces and 2 territories, and provided a scientific service critical in over 1,000 scientific...

The Acquaman project (Acquisition and Data Management) was started in early 2010 at the Canadian Light Source. Over the past four years, the project has grown to support five beamlines by providing beamline control, data visualization, workflow, data organization, and analysis tools. Taking advantage of modular design and common components across beamlines, the Acquaman team has demonstrated...

Synchrotron radiation experiments critically depend on the stability of the photon beam position. The position of the photon beam at the experiment or optical element location is set by the electron beam source position and angle as it traverses the magnetic field of the bend magnet or insertion device. An ideal photon beam monitor would be able to measure the photon beam’s position and...

Synchrotron light sources routinely produce brilliant beams of light from the infrared to hard X-ray. Typically, the length of the electron bunch is much longer than the wavelength of the produced radiation, causing the electrons to radiate incoherently. Many synchrotron light sources, including the Canadian Light Source (CLS), can operate in special modes where the electron bunch, or...
