Echidna and Wombat

Echidna (high-resolution powder diffractometer) and Wombat (high-intensity powder diffractometer)

Echidna

The various teams are working together to test the range of available sample-environment devices on the two powder instruments. Two examples: the 7-Tesla cryomagnet has been put to test for functionality and safety on Echidna, see photo above, and the cryofurnace has been successfully assessed for functionality and integration with the data-acquisition system, see photo below on Wombat.
