Application VME64X Chassis to be located at various locations on the synchrotron ring. The computing power provided by these chassis is used to collate the results of numerous experiments performed along the ring.
Elma Solution 4U & 11U VME64X chassis solutions with the emphasis on quality and reliability.
Why did Elma win? We have leveraged existing 4U and 11U VME64X chassis solutions to provide high reliability, controlled and monitored systems. Downtime is not an option with such a demanding application and we have therefore worked with the customer to provide full system monitoring including the temperature, power supplies and fans. Both solutions offer redundancy with swappable power supplies and fan trays.
Other Info:What is a synchrotron light source?
A synchrotron light source is a doughnut-shaped microscope the size of a several football fields. It produces incredibly intense light beams, mainly as X-rays, that can penetrate deep inside all kinds of matter, from proteins to plastics. Many scientists can work on different projects at the same time, using different kinds of light from the synchrotron. For example, one scientist can be investigating the stresses inside an aircraft engine, while another t 756 akes snapshots of proteins as they fold.
Diamond will produce pinpoint ultra-violet and X-ray beams of exceptional brightness. These highly focused light beams will enable scientists and engineers to probe deep into the basic structure of matter and materials, answering fundamental questions about everything from the building blocks of life to the origin of our planet. State-of-the-art instrumentation will complement the light source, ensuring that researchers from the UK and abroad have access to cutting-edge analytical techniques and services for the next twenty years or more. Such fundamental research is at the heart of the competitiveness of the UK economy.
