*Next MX-proposal application deadline: March 1, 2011 *
We kindly invite new MX-proposals for beamtime applications for the next
beamtime period.
In order to apply for beamtime, please register at the HZB on-line access
tool "BOAT" (http://www.bessy.de/boat/). HZB provides beamtime at the
MX-beamlines 14.1, 14.2 and 14.3. The requested beamtime is granted
based on the peer-reviewed proposal and reports from previous research
activities. Reported results from previous beamtimes stated in the
"Experimental
Reports" form will affect the chances for future beamtimes significantly.
Please make sure to include them if available.
