  We have developed a compact and rigid mechanical design for a liquid-nitrogen-cooled vertically-deflecting double-crystal monochromator (DCM) for the ANATOMIX beamline at Synchrotron SOLEIL. An in-situ differential interferometer setup directly measures the pitch and roll parallelism between the 1st and the 2nd crystal under operating conditions with liquid-nitrogen flow and at pressures below 10-8 mbar. Factory measurements at moderate LN2 flow rates show a stability of the relative pitch of 25 nrad RMS (0.1 to 10 kHz) and a first relevant resonant frequency of 175 Hz. At lower flow rates, still sufficient to dissipate several hundred watts of heat load, an angular stability of 15 nrad RMS is achieved.

  ANATOMIX* is a long beamline for full-field tomography techniques at the French synchrotron SOLEIL [1]. It will operate in the energy range from 5 to 30 keV, and feature several operation modes via versatile optics configurations, including direct white beam propagation. Two methodologically different experimental stations will be used: parallel-beam X-ray shadowgraphy, for spatial resolution down to the sub-micron range, and full-field transmission X-ray microscopy down to a spatial resolution of less than 100 nm. To cover this large panel of experimental possibilities, the Detector Group, the Mechanical Engineering Group and beamline team have designed four dedicated indirect X-ray detector. For pixels in the sub-micron size range : a micro-tomography revolver camera for versatility, a high-efficiency camera for flux-limited experiments, and a high-resolution camera for the largest optical magnifications will be available. For experiments with a large X-ray beam and pixel sizes from several microns upward, a "large-field" camera completes the set. We describe these different assemblies with the detailed components and expected specification of each solution.
* Beamline largely funded by the French National Research Agency through the EQUIPEX investment program, NanoimagesX.
