Autonomous Beamline Alignment (BLOP)
Four beam configurations on the NSLS-II TES (8-BM) beamline: upper-left shows the initial beam; lower-right shows the optimal alignment. Six degrees of freedom (KB mirror translations/rotations and toroidal mirror pitch/translation) are tuned to maximize flux density. From Morris et al., J. Synchrotron Rad. 31, 1446 (2024).
2020 – present
Sirepo — a cloud-based web interface for X-ray source and optics simulations powered by SRW, developed at RadiaSoft / NSLS-II. Enables browser-based setup, execution, and visualization of synchrotron beamline simulations. See Rakitin et al., J. Synchrotron Rad. 25, 1877 (2018).
Dec 2015 – present
Prototype desktop GUI for Synchrotron Radiation Workshop (SRW), developed as a job-interview demo at BNL.
