Abstract

We report progress for the ERDA time-of-flight beamline at the Centre of Micro-Analysis of Materials in Madrid. This beamline experienced a long shut down and has recently gone through a re-commissioning process. The time stations, based on a twin mirror design, demonstrate a time resolution of 215 ps for 6 MeV He2+. Using a standard particle detector for the energy signal we find a mass resolution of 1.4 atomic mass units for 27Al and 28Si with 40 MeV Cl4+. Detection efficiency needs no corrections for elements heavier than 7Li. Analysis of a borosilicate reference showed good agreement with the known composition. Based on these results, the facility is considered operational and open for users.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2026-04-02:

  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 5 (PlumX).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
