Dr Andrew Leslie (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) , Cambridge UK)04/07/2011, 09:30Front-end Electronics and ReadoutOral presentationProtein crystallography (PX) is particularly demanding of detector performance and historically it has always been the detector that has been the limiting factor in the majority, if not all, diffraction experiments. Ultimately this is due to the need to obtain data with an excellent signal to noise ratio from samples that are limited in size, inherently weakly diffracting and highly...Go to contribution page
