Hi Paolo, Congrats ! I think this is great ! Believe it or not, if you mention this at the ILL the don't get too excited about in the committees. Really sad.
Best, D. -- Dimitri Argyriou Hahn Meitner Institut > Dear Colleague, > > Starting from cycle 2004/03 (April-May 2005), ISIS has started to offer a > "Measure-by-Courier" powder diffraction access mechanism to the GEM > diffractometer (XPRESS). This mechanism is aimed at new and infrequent > users, research programmes requiring only limited and/or occasional > neutron beamtime and chemistry programmes operating a tight loop between > synthesis and structural characterisation. A total of 1 beam day per cycle > on the GEM powder diffractometer will be devoted to this programme. > > Initially, samples will only be measured at room temperature and in > standard containers, but access to sample environment is currently being > planned.Fully reduced and corrected high-quality data, ready for Rietveld > refinement, will be provided to the user, together with example files and > guidelines for refinement. The user is expected to carry out the > structural analysis with minimal assistance. > The next XPRESS run is scheduled for > TUESDAY, JULY 19 2005 > > To access XPRESS and read the full instructions, please follow the link on > the ISIS proposal page http://www.isis.rl.ac.uk/applying/. The system is > designed to be self explanatory. > Your Login ID (email address) and password is the same as for the normal > proposal submission. If you are not currently an ISIS user, you will be > asked to register on line prior to submission of an XPRESS request. > I very much looking forward to receiving your first XPRESS requests. > Paolo Radaelli > ******************************* > Prof. Paolo G.
