15/11/2022 : SINQ - Call for Proposals

Dépêche neutrons, Projets / Appels à Projets

Tue, Nov. 15th, 2022 23:00

The next DEADLINE for the submission of beam time requests for the Swiss spallation neutron source SINQ will be:

November 15, 2022, midnight, C.E.S.T.

This call is open for the following instruments:

Powder Diffractometer: HRPT,DMC
Single Crystal Diffractometer : ZEBRA
Strain Scanner: POLDI
Small Angle Neutron Scattering: SANS-I

Triple-Axis Spectrometers: TASP, EIGER
Multiplexing Spectrometer: CAMEA
Time-of-Flight Spectrometer: FOCUS Instruments
for Neutron Imaging and Optics: NEUTRA, ICON, BOA

Please note:

The Neutron Microscope can be chosen as experimental setup option on POLDI, ICON and BOA. The reflectometer AMOR that is being commissioned after its major upgrade and the new small angle scattering facility SANS-LLB that is presently being installed in collaboration with our French partners from LLB both might take some friendly users during cycle I-23. Please contact the instrument teams for further information.

PERIOD: Herewith we call for proposals for the beam time period I-23 between May and August 2023. We aim to inform the users in February 2023 about the results of the proposal evaluation.

_____________________________________________________________

PROPOSAL-SUBMISSION: New users are kindly asked to contact the instrument scientists before submitting a proposal to discuss instrumental options and reasonable beam time requests.
Please make use of the option to link related previous proposals with their experimental reports to the new one. A proper mention of previous results will provide a certain 'bonus' during the evaluation process.

Guidelines for the proposal submission and further useful information can be found on the SINQ webpages:

Further detailed information about the SINQ instruments.
The feasibility of complex experiments should always be discussed in advance with the instrument and sample environment scientists.
