Next MX-proposal application deadline: September 1, 2014 is approaching
BAG proposal applications are now possible
Single 8h-shift beamtime bookings are now possible

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 "GATE" (https://www.helmholtz-berlin.de/pubbin/hzbgate) and submit 
a new
beamtime application proposal.

Please note:
Old BOAT accounts are not valid for the new system GATE. Proposals cannot be 
submitted via BOAT (GATE-Photons) anymore

HZB provides beamtime at the MX-beamlines 14.1, 14.2 and 14.3. The requested 
beamtime is
granted based on the 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.
