Call for Proposals

[Joyce A. Roberts]

Call for Proposals


The Manuel Lujan Jr. Neutron Scattering Center (MLNSC) [formerly the Los
Alamos Neutron Scattering Center] is accepting proposals for research in
the condensed matter sciences. MLNSC and the Weapons Neutron Research (WNR)
facility are part of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center, an intense
source of pulsed spallation neutrons, at the Los Alamos National
Laboratory.

Proposals will be accepted for single measurements or for long-term programs.

Instruments available at MLNSC for the 1996 July-November run cycle are:
* High Intensity Powder Diffractometer (HIPD)
* Neutron Powder Diffractometer (NPD)
* Low-Q Diffractometer (LQD)
* Single Crystal Diffractometer (SCD)
* Surface Profile Analysis Reflectometer (SPEAR)
* Filter Difference Spectrometer (FDS)
* High-Resolution Chopper Spectrometer (PHAROS)

Detailed information on the instruments and the proposal forms can be found
on the World Wide Web (http://www.lansce.lanl.gov) or by contacting the
MLNSC User Program Office.

MLNSC is operated by DOE/Office of Defense Programs and  is a national user
facility funded by the DOE/Office of Basic Energy Sciences.

There is no charge for nonproprietary experiments, but DOE cost-recovery
rules will apply to experiments not intended for the open literature.

Individuals or research teams interested in submitting research proposals
should contact the MLNSC User Program Office or access World Wide Web for
user information and a blank proposal form, which is used for both MLNSC
and WNR. All completed forms should be mailed to this office before April
22:
