Call for Proposals: January 2013-December 2013
ISA is a member of the EU FP7-Infrastructures Programme CALIPSO, which supports transnational access to synchrotron light sources and FELs within Europe. As such funds are available to support scientists from EU members and associated states who wish to use the facilities at ASTRID and ASTRID2. (This support is not available to scientists who have their host institute within Denmark).
Approximately 75% of the available beam time (ISA schedule) will be distributed on an annual basis by an independent users selection panel, based on scientific merits. Hence all users, whether eligible for EU support or not, are requested to submit a proposal and beam time request form for the period January 2013-December 2013 to ISA, by the 1st of November 2012.
The remaining 25 % of the beam time will be distributed during the year to new proposals, test experiments and approved experiments.
Access will be supported for use of the synchrotron-radiation beam lines at ASTRID and also ASTRID2. During 2013 some of the beam lines on ASTRID will be closed down in order to transfer them to the new ring, ASTRID2, and will become available once commissioning for each beam line has been completed.
If you have any questions regarding the availability of a beam line during the course of this proposal period please contact the relevant beam line scientist as listed below. For general scientific and technical questions you can contact:
