Non-standard experiments on MX
There are a variety of non-standard experiments which you can carry out on MX.
These include variable temperature, variable position, high-pressure, photochemistry, cold-mounting samples and many more.
If you want to carry out any of these experiments, please contact a beamline scientist at least a week before your experiment.
