SSRL encourages scientists from diverse fields to propose experiments utilizing our unique capabilities. Agreements must be completed in advance with user institutions, but there is generally no cost to conduct non-proprietary experiments at SSRL. Contact SSRL scientists to discuss proposed experiments using the capabilities on SSRL beam lines.
All submission deadlines are for midnight California time of the stated date.
