The next DEADLINE for the submission of beam time requests for the Swiss
spallation neutron source 'SINQ' http://www.psi.ch/sinq will be:
********* May 15, 2013, midnight *********
PERIOD:
Herewith we call for proposals for the beam time period II/13 between
01/10/2013 and 23/12/2013.
PROPOSAL-SUBMISSION:
New users are kindly asked to contact the instrument responsibles
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. This new feature replaces
the previous option to submit 'continuation proposals'.
Guidelines for the proposal submission and further useful information can be
found on the SINQ webpages:

INSTRUMENTS:
The following instruments will be open for new proposals in cycle II/13:
Powder Diffractometers : HRPT, DMC
Single Crystal Diffractometer : TriCS
Strain Scanner : POLDI
Small Angle Scattering : SANS-I, SANS-II
Reflectometer : AMOR
Triple Axis Spectrometers : TASP, RITA-II, EIGER(*)
Time-of-Flight Spectrometer : FOCUS
Radiography, Imaging : NEUTRA, ICON (cycle for imaging experiments will start on Sep 1)
(*): The new thermal triple-axis spectrometer EIGER is available for user operation
since a couple of months and is ready to receive proposals.
Interested users are kindly requested to contact the instrument responsible in advance
of submitting a proposal to discuss the feasibility of the planned experiments:
uwe.stuhr@psi.ch
