[Neutron] Call for proposals FRM II, deadline Jan. 16. 2009

[Thomas Gutberlet]

Dear colleagues,

you are invited to apply for beam time at the German neutron source 
Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II). Proposals can be submitted any time via 
our user portal http://user.frm2.tum.de. They are
reviewed twice a year. Please register in the user office. With your 
personal account you can access the proposal and reporting system and 
get additional informations and guidance to perform experiments at the 
FRM II.

Deadline for proposal submission is Jan. 16. 2009.

The review of the proposals will take place on March, 6th 2009. Results 
of the referees will be online about two weeks later. The experiments of 
the accepted proposals will start from the 20th cycle, i.e. from June 2009.
The FRM II is a partner in the EU supported network of European neutron 
facilities (NMI3). Researchers working in EU Member States or Associated 
States other than Germany can apply for travel and subsistence 
reimbursement.

To ensure the feasibility of the proposed experiment please contact the 
instrument scientist well in advance. For the following instruments 
applications can be submitted:

 Diffraction:

 Heidi: single crystal diffractometer, hot source
 Resi: single crystal diffractometer, thermal source
 Spodi: powder diffractometer, thermal source
 Stress-Spec: material-science diffractometer, thermal source

 Mira: reflectometer with long wave length neutrons
 N-Rex+: reflectometer for material science, cold source
 Refsans: time-of-flight reflectometer for soft matter, cold source

 Spectroscopy:

 Trisp: three-axis spectrometer with Spin-Echo, thermal source
 Puma: three-axis spectrometer, thermal source
 Panda: three-axis spectrometer, cold source

 TofTof: time-of-flight spectrometer, cold source
 Reseda: resonance spin-echo spectrometer, cold source

 Radiography and Tomography:

 Antares: radiography and tomography, cold source
 Nectar: radiography and tomography, fission neutron source

 PGAA: prompt gamma-activation analysis

 Positrons:

 Nepomuc:
 positron beam ("open beam port")
 positron auger spectrometer ("PAES")
 positron defect spectrometer ("Coincidence doppler broadening")
 positron life time spectroscopy ("PLEPS")

 Particle physics:

 Mephisto: neutron beam cold source for special experiments

Details of the instruments and sample environment available can be 
obtained from our Internet site  http://www.frm2.tum.de

The beam time of the FRM II on the instruments of the JCNS facility 
hosted at FRM II neutron source in Garching are distributed through the 
JCNS proposal system at http://fzj.frm2.tum.de (next deadline is April 
6th 2009) for the instruments KWS-2, J-NSE, DNS and SPHERES.

In addition to beam tube experiments irradiation facilities are 
available for neutron activation analysis, isotope production and 
silicon doping. Altogether 17 irradiation channels are available for 
scientific and industrial applications.
