The µspot beamline is a new beamline at BESSY dedicated to X-ray spectroscopy
and to scanning small and wide angle scattering. As a special feature for micro X-ray
spectroscopy a confocal setup of two special X-ray optics is part of the experimental
environment. The characteristics of the new beamline, the instrumentation and the
experimental environment will be described. Emphasis is laid upon the confocal setup
and its potentials. Results of the first application experiments will be presented.
Applications in life science, geology, art and archaeology, materials science, and other
application fields of X-ray spectroscopy are encouraged and welcome. User operation
will start in the second half of this year.
