Description

The Munich Compact Light Source (MuCLS) is an inverse-Compton scattering source and consists of an electron storage ring and a passive bow-tie laser resonator. The X-ray energy varies between 15 keV and 35 keV with a flux up to 1.5⋅10^10 ph/s. Examples of the experiments that can be performed include dynamic in vivo respiratory imaging, propagation-based phase-contrast imaging, grating-based phase-contrast imaging, X-ray microtomography, K-edge subtraction imaging and X-ray spectroscopy.
