Design considerations for a new beamline for standard EXAFS at a high-energy low-emittance storage ring

P65 is a new EXAFS beamline to be built at the PETRA III storage ring at DESY in Hamburg. It will mainly be used for standard EXAFS applications with a relatively large beam and moderate flux density. While the beamline optics will be similar to many other standard EXAFS beamlines, the insertion device at such a large high-energy storage ring with low emittance like PETRA III will need special attention. This paper discusses the main design considerations for the construction of such a beamline at a 6 GeV storage ring with an emittance of 1 nm rad.
