	Comments on MESO-m3a

The complete experimental set-up is an aggregate of the components indicated in the text. In the course of the research project, several components have been replaced, while the other components were reused. For example, the sputtering source was replace by a charge-exchange source, but the same surface-ionisation detector was used to measure the intensity of the beam. Therefore we have collected all mesoscopic modules on experimental methods used in the corpus in this complex module.

In this appendix, we do not provide complete mesoscopic Experimental methods modules. Instead, we indicate what kind of modules can be created:

Source of electronvolt beams. This a cluster modules with constituent modules on the various sources used in the corpus, including:

Sputtering source. The information to be represented in this mdoule can be derived from the theses by Politiek (T1) and Moutinho (T2)
Charge exchange source. The information on this source has originally been published by Aten and Los in the journal Journal of Physics E: Scientific instruments

Selection. The detailed information about the velocity selector presented in T1 and T2, including a discussion of the precision, can be grouped in this module.
Interaction. A cluster module, including:

Iodine oven. In A08, detailed information is given on the apparatus in which, firstly, the iodine atoms are created and, secondly, sodium atoms collide with them.

Analysis.
Detection A cluster module, including:

Surface ionisation detector. Different aspects of this detector are presented in subsequent articles in the corpus. The complete description and discussion can be given in this mesoscopic module.

The local "author defined" essay-type path only leads through this module. The module is connected to other mesoscopic and macroscopic modules by means of a "reader defined" path: the reader should be able to define a customised path through a selected set of modules. We have selected this particular set of modules.
