Access to ISA

ISA welcomes applications, from national or international groups, for access to any ISA research facilities.

The deadline for submission of proposals for beamtime on ASTRID in the period March 2012 to February 2013 is the 31st of December 2011.

If you have not carried out experiments on one of the ASTRID beamlines before, we recommend that you contact the relevant beamline scientist before submitting a proposal.

The submission of proposals will be followed by a peer-review in late January and you will be notified of the outcome soon afterwards.
The schedule for ASTRID in 2012 can be found here
As you may be aware, our former transnational access programme, ELISA, terminated this autumn and we are therefore not able to support any users with any allowance for either travel or subsistence. However, we are able to provide you with beam free of charge and we will do our best to assist you in your work. We have recently, with other light sources in Europe, submitted a proposal to the EU for a new access programme possibly starting in summer 2012. Clearly, as soon as and if this new access programme has been granted by the EU, we will invite you all to apply for support under the new conditions.
Danish users are also requested to submit proposals in order to allow us to plan the user schedule.

In addition let us urge you to draw the attention of any potential new users to the ASTRID synchrotron radiation facility and all the possibilities that ASTRID presents.

Please send your proposal (see below for a link to the proposal form) via email to Kate Andersen .
