\begin{tikzfigure}[CAD view of the ID31 end station] \label{fig:assemblage} \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figs/assemblage.pdf} \end{tikzfigure} \begin{minipage}[t]{0.49\linewidth} The ID31 Sample Station consists of multiple stacked stages (figs~\ref{fig:assemblage} and~\ref{fig:exp_setup}): \begin{itemize} \item \emph{translation stage}: travel range of \(T_y = \SI{\pm5}{\milli\metre}\). Permits to scan the sample through the X-ray. \item \emph{tilt stage}: rotates the sample around the \(y\) axis by \(\theta_y = \ang{\pm3}\). The rotation axis is aligned with the focusing point of the X-ray in order to allow experiments such as X-ray reflectivity. \item \emph{air bearing spindle}: rotate the sample around the vertical axis with an angular speed that varies from \(\dot{\theta_z} = \SI{1}{rpm}\) for light samples (\(M<\SI{1}{\kilo\gram}\)) to \(\dot{\theta_z} = \SI{60}{rpm}\) for heavy samples (\(M=\SI{50}{\kilo\gram}\)). \item \emph{long-stroke Stewart platform}: allows a fine positioning of the sample in all 6 degrees of freedom (DoF). \item \emph{gravity compensation system}: consists of two motorized mass that can be positioned around a circular guidance in order to perfectly aligned the center of mass with the spindle rotation axis. \item \emph{sample environment}: permits to study samples under wide range of condition: low (\(\SI{1.2}{\kelvin}\)) to high (\(\SI{2000}{\kelvin}\)) temperatures, high magnetic field (\(\SI{8}{\tesla}\)), etc. \end{itemize} \end{minipage}\hfill \begin{minipage}[t]{0.49\linewidth} \begin{tikzfigure}[Picture of the ID31 end station.
