Call for Proposals: January 2021-December 2021
Deadline for submission of proposals: 9th November 2020
The call for proposals for beam time in 2021 is CLOSED
ISA welcomes applications from national or international groups, for access to any ISA research facility for the period January-December 2021.
Approximately 75% of the available beam time (ISA schedule 2021) will be distributed on an annual basis by an independent users selection panel, based on scientific merit. Hence all users are requested to submit a proposal and beam time request form for the period January 2021-December 2021 to ISA, by the 9th of November 2020.
The remaining 25 % of the beam time will be distributed during the year to new proposals, test experiments and approved experiments.
Beam time deferred from 2020
Due to the challenging circumstances in 2020, with work and travel restrictions due to COVID-19, some of the scheduled beam time could not go ahead. It has been decided that any proposal awarded beam time for 2020, which could not be used due to this situation, can be scheduled for some time in 2021. We ask anyone wishing to do so, to email with the details of the proposal submitted in 2019 (including the project number ISA-20-xxx), requesting that the time is allocated in 2021, so that we know to include it when planning the schedules. If such a request is not received, we cannot guarantee being able to accommodate deferred beam time in 2021.
Access will be supported for use of the synchrotron-radiation beam lines at ASTRID2.
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:

EU support
ISA is a member of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation programme CALIPSOplus, which supports transnational access to synchrotron light sources and FELs within Europe. Therefore funds are available to support scientists from EU members and associated states who wish to use the facilities at ASTRID2 in 2020, until the end of October. (This support is not available to scientists who have their host institute within Denmark). |
For eligible users from the EU member states and associated states (Iceland, Israel, Lichtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey),
applying for access and economic support under the project CALIPSOplus, see this page for further information.
