  XAIRA is a new beamline being built at ALBA synchrotron for macromolecular crystallography (MX) devoted to the study of small bio crystals. It aims at providing a full beam with a size of 3x1 µm2 FWHM (hxv) and flux of >3·1012 ph/s (250 mA in Storage Ring) at 1 Å wavelength (12.4 keV) to tackle MX projects for which only tiny (<10 μm) or imperfect crystals are obtained. Besides, XAIRA aims at providing photons at low energies, down to 4 keV, to support MX experiments exploiting the anomalous signal of the metals naturally occurring in proteins (native phasing), which is enhanced in the case of small crystals and long wavelengths. To this end, an in-vacuum undulator has been built by a consortium between Kyma and Research Instruments companies. In this paper, we present the results of the Site Acceptance Tests made at ALBA using a new bench developed to measure closed structures, and also the steps done for its installation in the ALBA tunnel.

  FAXTOR is a new hard XR tomography beam line that is being built at ALBA in order to fulfil the needs that cannot be currently covered by the MISTRAL VUV and soft XR beamline. This beam line needs a small source size as well higher than 1012 Photons per second through an aperture of 4x1 mm2 in the whole range 5 to 60 keV, for a current of 250 mA in Storage Ring with source size maintained below 310 µm horizontal and 25 µm vertical. The contract was awarded to AVS-US Company. In this paper we present the design finally selected as well as the preliminary design carried out by manufacturer to implement the conceptual model designed by ALBA.
