CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR ESRF BEAMTIME WITH ONLINE MICROSPEC
There will be beamtime available from **15th to 18th November 2007** inclusive at the ESRF for MX data collection with a setup that allows online monitoring of UV/VIS spectral changes of the crystal during the X-ray diffraction experiment. Users who are interested in this beam time (including those who are members of BAG Groups) should apply /via/ the following mechanism:
http://www.esrf.fr/UsersAndScience/UserGuide/Applying/ProposalGuidelines/MXnon-BAGproposal
and it must be clearly indicated in the title of the proposal form that the online monitoring of spectral changes is necessary for the project.
A brief description of the device is given below, however users are encouraged to consult the webpages for detailed information:

As this is not a standard setup, it might take a significant amount of time to train users, align the device, and analyse the data in order to derive relevant data collection schemes. We will therefore schedule 24 hours for each project. The deadline for this specific application is *Monday 8th October 2007, 9:00am*
