A novel beam width doubling double crystal monochromator -some preliminary findings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The maximum useable beam width at the Biomedical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) beamline at the Canadian Light Source (CLS) is suitable for most imaging applications. But access to a wider beam would benefit many programs especially computed tomography where the beam width defines the largest sample that can be imaged. A double crystal bent Laue monochromator capable of doubling the width of the incident beam is proposed; this is possible by taking advantage of symmetric off-axis, or skew reflections in the crystals. A preliminary experiment to establish proof of concept for this design has been completed using a double crystal unbent Laue system. Results are presented showing the beam width doubling from 28.3mm to 56.6mm and the effect of the skew reflections on the monochromaticity of the exit beam. Further work on this monochromator will include an investigation into the choice of reflections, a study of the effect on the change in energy across the exit beam, the development of strategies to minimize the effect of the beam overlap region downstream from the monochromator and the development of an alignment process for the double crystal bent Laue system.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
