Abstract

A Weissenberg camera for macromolecules with imaging plate data collection system at BL6A and BL18B stations in the Photon Factory is introduced and evaluated. The special feature of these systems is considered matching for both SR-x rays and protein crystallography. This system is user-friendly and can collect a large amount of data to higher resolution from the crystal with large unit cell dimensions. A newly developed camera can be used as a time-resolved Laue camera and a Weissenberg camera. A large image reader (IPR4080) that can scan 400×400 mm2 and 400×800 mm2 sizes of imaging plates has been developed and evaluated. The new data collection system combined with the new camera and IPR4080 will be installed at the BL18B station in October 1994.
