A two-germanium-crystal four-220-reflection (+ - - \,+) monochromator, combining high intensity with high resolution, is proposed in this work. The main characteristic is that only the first reflection is asymmetric. The asymmetry factor was chosen so as to allow mixing of asymmetric and symmetric reflections in a monolithic channel-cut crystal without the need for rotation of the two monolith components to correct for the different refraction-induced angular shifts of the reflection pair. It is demonstrated that the exit-beam divergence in the diffraction plane and the fractional wavelength band-pass are smaller by 40% than those of the widely used germanium 220 Bartels monochromator, while the photon flux collected from the source is larger by a factor of five. The optical features and performance of the monochromator are discussed and compared with those of other (+ - - \,+) monochromators reported in the literature.

Abstract. This paper describes an integrated, high-resolution dataset of hydro-meteorological variables (rainfall and discharge) concerning a number of high-intensity flash floods that occurred in Europe and in the Mediterranean region from 1991 to 2015. This type of dataset is rare in the scientific literature because flash floods are typically poorly observed hydrological extremes. Valuable features of the dataset (hereinafter referred to as EuroMedeFF database) include i) its coverage of varied hydro-climatic regions, ranging from Continental Europe through the Mediterranean to Arid climates, ii) the high space-time resolution radar-rainfall estimates, and iii) the dense spatial sampling of the flood response, by observed hydrographs and/or flood peak estimates from post-flood surveys. Flash floods included in the database are selected based on the limited upstream catchment areas (up to 3000 km2), the limited storm durations (up to 2 days), and the unit peak flood magnitude. The EuroMedeFF database comprises 49 events that occurred in France, Israel, Italy, Romania, Germany, and Slovenia, and constitutes a sample of rainfall and flood discharge extremes in different climates. The dataset may be of help to hydrologists as well as other scientific communities because it offers benchmark data for the identification and analysis of the hydro-meteorological causative processes, evaluation of flash flood hydrological models and for hydro-meteorological forecast systems. The dataset also provides a template for the analysis of the space-time variability of flash flood-triggered rainfall fields and of the effects of their estimation on the flood response modelling. The dataset is made available to the public as a "public dataset" with the following DOI: (https://doi.org/10.6096/mistrals-hymex.1493).
