Many processes in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, climate, and the environment in general depend on temperature. Research aiming at a better understanding of the world around us, improving the impact of our research, and ultimately benefitting the quality of life, relies on precise data. The contact-free, in-situ measurement of temperature to be developed in this project using a temperature-dependent scintillation characteristic is targeting precisely this - improving the monitoring of temperature of a protein sample holder assembly for macromolecular crystallography on the I23 beamline at the Diamond Light Source. For this purpose, a technique developed for research into the dark matter of the universe is being adapted for use at a synchrotron beamline. It involves modifications to the designs of already demonstrated equipment, fabrication of a specialized version of this equipment, systems integration and implementation at the beamline of the synchrotron. The demonstration of feasibility and quality will allow a better assessment of the wider potential of the technique.

物理学、化学、生物学、医学、气候和环境中的许多过程一般都取决于温度。研究旨在更好地了解我们周围的世界，提高我们的研究影响，并最终受益于生活质量，依赖于精确的数据。在该项目中开发的无接触、原位温度测量使用温度依赖性闪烁特性，正是针对这一点-改善在钻石光源的I23光束线上对蛋白质样品保持器组件进行大分子晶体学的温度监测。为此目的，正在对为研究宇宙暗物质而开发的一种技术进行调整，以便在同步加速器光束线上使用。它涉及修改已经演示的设备的设计，制造这种设备的专用版本，系统集成和同步加速器光束线的实施。可行性和质量的证明将有助于更好地评估该技术的更广泛潜力。
