  BL26B2 closed
Date: 2023-09-06 (Wed)
BL26B2 has finished operation as PX-BL as of 2023A.
All users are appreciated for their scientific use and outputs.

  BL26B2 detector
Date: 2021-02-15 (Mon)
Area detector at BL26B2 has been replaced to MX225HS after reparing the power soure problem.

  Notice! BL26B2 detector
Date: 2020-10-10 (Sat)
MX225HS is out of use, because of an electrical circuit error.
We have contacted the manufacturer to fix the problem.
MX225HE is alternatively installed for user's experiment.

  2020A 5th Cycle
Date: 2020-08-24 (Mon)
User operation of 2020A 5th cycle at BL26B1 & B2 will start in middle of October.

  BL26B2 sample changer
Date: 2019-04-02 (Tue)
Sample changer SPACE has been upgraded to have two sample holders for faster sample exchange.
By this, we have finished the support for SPACE screw pins.
Instead, mail-in data collection using D-Cha is available with Hampton-typ pins in the Uni-Pucks.
At BL26B1, screw type pins are still available to use.

  BL26 beam property
Date: 2018-10-17 (Wed)
Asymmetric monochromator crystals have been implemented.
The full photon flux at sample at 1A wavelength has increased three times at maximum (depends on the wavalength).
The available wavelength is limited from 0.9 to 1.9A
