Important information
Present situation
Unfortunately the user support of all major I3 access programs of the European Community like CALIPSO, Biostruct-X or NMI3 has ended or is no longer available at the PSI facilities.
The latest neutron/muon I3 access proposal (NMIstar/H2020) was rejected by the EC in August 2018. Therefore for the time being no travel support is available for the SINQ and SμS users.
PSI was partner within the I3 access program (CALIPSOplus) under the framework program HORIZON2020 but all funds have been spent and no more funding for travel and subsistence is available.
On some beamlines a few smaller programs are presently being supported like NFFA-pilot (NEP) or EUSMI. For further information please contact your PSI beamline scientist in advance.
