General Information
For detailed user information please refer to PSI User Office.
Proposals
Proposers interested in an experiment at this beamline are asked to contact one of the beamline scientists prior to submitting a proposal.
Proposals have to be submitted using the SLS Digital Users Office (DUO).

Preparing Before Beamtime
It is recommended that users contact their assigned local contact Staff to obtain any information required for preparing their experiment. Users should first carefully check the Endstations or Manuals pages, to see what is available at the endstation which they will use.
It is important that the users have checked the following considerations with the beamline scientists prior to their scheduled experiments:
Requests for dosimeters can be obtained by the DUO. Information about accommodation during the beamtime at can be found here.
It is important that the users have checked the following considerations with the beamline scientists prior to their scheduled experiments:
- Sample preparation:
- cleavable samples?
- in-situ samples?: What evaporation sources are desired? Are the evaporation sources available at the beamline preparation chamber, or do the users prefer to install their own evaporation sources?
- Sample mounting possibilities and constraints.
- Temperature.
- What energy resolution and energy are desired?
- Other?
