Description:
<jats:p>Design and experience of the initial operation of a new beamline (BL-28B) for an elliptical-multipole wiggler constructed at the Photon Factory are described. An indirect-water-cooled premirror has been installed for horizontal focusing and vertical collimating. The fixed-exit double-crystal monochromator also has an indirect-water-cooled system. The post-mirror has been commissioned in order to refocus the x-ray beam vertically and cut the higher harmonics of the monochromatized x rays. All the elements of this beam line are high-vacuum compatible.</jats:p>
