Joint Proposals for X-ray (SLS) and neutron (SINQ) powder diffraction
Since 2008 PSI launches regularly annual calls for proposals for a joint use of both X-ray and neutron powder diffraction beamlines. At SLS the (Materials Science Beamline X04SA, meanwhile ADDAMS beamline) and at SINQ the powder diffractometer HRPT (thermal neutrons) and the powder and single crystal diffractometer DMC (cold neutrons) are involved.
The call is addressed to proposals for powder diffraction experiments in the fields of condensed matter, crystallography, chemistry, magnetism etc, for which the use of both synchrotron X-ray AND neutron diffraction is required and adequately justified.
The program is presently suspended because of the ongoing SLS upgrade and the following IMPACT program. We will inform you as soon as possible about a continuation.
