Sirius, the Brazilian synchrotron light source, designed and operated by the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM), a private non-profit organization under the supervision of the Brazilian Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovations (MCTI), opens a regular call for research proposals for six beamlines. From November 8 to December 15, those researchers interested in performing experiments at Sirius can submit a proposal.
Successful proposals will be selected by a review process that favors scientific merit through a distributed double anonymity peer-review system. The final allocation of beam time will also consider the geographic and sientific areas of proposers.
