Proposal Submittal and Scheduling Procedures for Research at SSRL
Important Notes:
When submitting new proposals to SSRL, keep in mind that attention will be given to proposals that have published results from experiments utilizing SSRL's unique facilities and that have appropriately acknowledged SSRL and funding agencies on all related publications.
Proposals submitted to SSRL are peer reviewed and rated on a scale from 1 (highest) to 5 (lowest). Proposals rated better than 1.5 are most likely to receive their optimal number of shifts on their first choice beam line; other requests are accommodated as beam time is available. Proposal spokespersons are likely to be asked to periodically assist by providing peer review which is a key element in appropriately allocating resources here at SSRL.
