SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT FOR SMALL ANGLE X-RAY SCATTERING DATA COLLECTION, BASED ON

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 我们继续改进分布式控制系统（DCS）和相应的图形用户界面Blu-Ice，我们在2004年首次将其用于非晶体散射/衍射实验，以使光束线控制和数据收集高效，直观和用户友好。今年开发的新的和改进的功能包括：1）通过Blu-Ice控制流动池并将其纳入数据采集; 2）使用样品选择器控制和纳入数据采集，从而可以从有限体积的多个样品等分试样中自动采集数据; 3）为工作人员定制光束线控制和优化的新工具; 4）将能量分辨X射线探测器（Vortex）并入DCS和Blu-Ice。 DCS/Blu-Ice系统已被广泛应用于BL 4 -2的所有实验中，但在时间分辨数据采集方面有一些例外，这是由滨松图像增强探测器系统和EMBL数据采集系统完成的。 在过去数月，当局集中力量，配合兴建新的BL 4 -2车站，对DCS/Blu-Ice进行重大升级。 升级后的DCS/Blu-Ice将有一个新的用户管理协议以及最新的硬件服务器，并将与所有新的硬件一起工作，使光束线控制和数据采集更加安全，高效和用户友好。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. We continue to make improvements to the distributed control system (DCS) and accompanying graphical user interface Blu-Ice, which we first used for non-crystalline scattering/diffraction experiments in 2004, in an effort to make beam line control and data collection highly efficient, intuitive, and user friendly. The new and improved capabilities developed this year include: 1) control of a flow cell by Blu-Ice and its incorporation in data acquisition; 2) control and incorporation in data acquisiton using the sample selector, making it possible to automatically acquire data from multiple sample aliquots of limited volume; 3) new tools for staff members to customize beam line control and optimization; 4) incorporation of an energy-resolving x-ray detector (Vortex) into the DCS and Blu-Ice. The DCS/Blu-Ice has been rountinely used for all experiments on BL4-2 with a few exceptions in time-resolved data collection, which is accomplished by the Hamamatsu image-intensified detector system and the EMBL data collection system. For the last few months, efforts have been concentrated on a major upgrade of the DCS/Blu-Ice in concert with the construction of the new BL4-2 station. The upgraded DCS/Blu-Ice will have a new user administration protocol as well as the most recent hardware servers, and will work with all the new hardware to make beam line control and data acquisition more secure, efficient, and user friendly once completed early next year.
