The beamlines that have been described in the paper represent a Canadian national resource that is available to science and industry world-wide. They include state-of-the-art infrastructure and include specialized capabilities, many of which are not available elsewhere, including macromolecular crystallography, biological X-ray spec- troscopy, soft X-ray spectromicroscopy, as well as small angle and wide angle X-ray scattering beamlines. The vision for Structural Biology at the Canadian Light Source is signicantly enhanced by the synergies and col- laborations between the users of the dierent beamlines and by the strengths of the scientic personnel and trainees.

ABSTRACT Preserved labile tissues (e.g., skin, muscle) in the fossil record of terrestrial vertebrates are increasingly becoming recognized as an important source of biological and tapho- nomic information. Here, we combine a variety of synchrotron radiation techniques with scanning electron and optical microscopy to elucidate the structure of 72 million- year-old squamous (scaly) skin from a hadrosaurid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada. Scanning electron and optical microscopy independently reveal that the three-dimensionally preserved scales are associated with a band of carbon-rich layers up to a total thickness of ∼75 microns, which is topographically and morphologically congruent with the stratum corneum in modern reptiles. Compositionally, this band deviates from that of the surrounding sedimentary matrix; Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and soft X-ray spectromicroscopy analyses indicate that carbon appears Submitted 27 April 2019 predominantly as carbonyl in the skin.

  • Canadian University - Based Research in Condensed Matter Physics - a Review and Recommendations for the Future
    Canadian University - Based Research in Condensed Matter Physics - a Review and Recommendations for the Future June 2, 1997 Review Subcommittee: John Berlinsky Martin Grant Thom Mason Sjoerd Roorda Mike Thewalt (chair) Jeff Young EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Review of Canadian university-based research in condensed matter physics (CMP), and its coupled Recommendations, is part of a wider review of all of university-based physics research in Canada, which was initiated as part of the liaison process between the Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), the primary funding source for such research. The review, which involved wide consultations with the research community at both the initial and draft stages, was allowed complete autonomy once begun. The analysis and recommendations presented here are therefore those of the review committee alone. In describing condensed matter physics research activities in Canada, two ‘success stories’ were used as examples of the impact and recognition which can be achieved when researchers working in areas of existing strength are brought together in a well-organized network aimed at enhancing national and international communication and collaboration. The breadth of activity in Canada was outlined with shorter descriptions of the high-quality work being carried out in departments across the country. In summarizing the results of the review, the committee adopted a format which focused on strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, the main points of which are reproduced below. Strengths 1. The principal strength which is noted in each successful area is a core group of excellent scientists. In areas which have been nurtured in Canada for many years, there are outstanding senior scientists.

The Canadian Light Source: STATUS REPORT UPDATE D. S. Lowe, I. Blomqvist, L. O. Dallin, M. de Jong, E. Hallin, E. D. Matias, R. M. Silzer, and J. A. Swirsky Canadian Light Source, University of Saskatchewan, 101 Perimeter Road, Saskatoon SK, S7N 0X4, Canada Phone: (306) 657-3500; Fax: (306) 657-3535 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Canadian Light Source, CLS, is presently in the final phases of construction and commissioning of subsystems has begun. The CLS comprises four main systems: a 250 MeV LINAC, a 2.9GeV full energy booster, a 2.9 GeV storage ring and a number of beam lines serving interests ranging from infrared light to hard X-rays. Commissioning of the injection system up to and including the booster ring is expected to be complete in September 2002. The storage ring has compact lattice consisting of 12 double bend “achromats” sectors, incorporating twelve 5.2 m straights. Three straights will be used for injection, RF, diagnostics, and remaining nine for insertion devices (IDs). The initial set of beamlines will include two IR (bend magnet) and five ID sources supplying light to seven beamlines and up to ten experimental end stations. Construction and commissioning of the storage ring and initial phase of beamlines is scheduled to be complete by the end of 2003.
