Abstract

The Marshall 100-Meter X-ray Beamline is a world class facility utilized for testing X-ray and EUV optics and instrumentation. Also known as the Stray Light Test Facility, the beamline has been consequential in the calibration of flight missions such as ART-XC and IXPE. Additionally, the beamline is effectively used for APRA-funded projects and in MSFC own internal optic development campaigns. The Marshall 100-Meter X-ray Beamline a flexible and affordable facility that easily accommodates many of the astrophysical community’s needs. With its recent and upcoming improvements, the Marshall 100-Meter X-ray Beamline will continue to be a user-friendly calibration resource for decades to come.
