The Bl-200SM Research Goniometer System provides access to all of these studies with an automatic,modular and versatile system. It is a precision instrument designed for exacting scattering measurements. Based on a special turntable with precision ball bearings and stepping motor, the Bl-200SM's modern design, and quality construction guarantee precise measurements due to the wobble-free movement of the detector. It is field proven in hundreds of laboratories. It is ideal for macro-molecular studies and submicron particle sizing. The Center for Dynamics and Control of Materials (CDCM) is supported by the National Science Foundation under NSF Award Number DMR – 2308817 and previously under NSF Award Number DMR-1720595. Additional support is provided by The University of Texas at Austin.
