Aleko Lilius (MAX IV Laboratory)23/09/2025, 13:45MC09: Experiment Control and Data AcquisitionContributed Oral Presentation
At MAX IV, we have developed a high-performance data acquisition (DAQ) system to handle the high rate detectors exploiting the brightness of the fourth-generation source. This system integrates multiple detector types, including photon counting and charge integrating detectors as well as sCMOS cameras, into a unified DAQ framework. Data are streamed to a central Kubernetes cluster which mounts...

Nicholas Lentz (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory)23/09/2025, 14:00MC09: Experiment Control and Data AcquisitionContributed Oral Presentation
With the High Energy Upgrade project in the installation phase at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), soon the repetition rate of the X-ray beam will exceed the capability of the present motion control system to reliably deliver samples. We describe the design of a motion control system which aims to deliver solid crystal samples within 5 um of the...
