Dear Materials Diffraction colleagues,
In order to facilitate discussions on first experiments with the broad scientific user community, an NSLS-II First-Experiments Workshop will be held at BROOKHAVEN NATIONAL LABORATORY, AUGUST 12-13, 2013. See http://workshops.ps.bnl.gov/?w=NSLS-II [1]. This two-day Workshop will consist of both plenary and parallel sessions. The Plenary Session will start with talks on grand-challenge science topics in several key research fields, followed by facility presentations to update the community about the early scientific capabilities at the initial suite of NSLS-II beamlines. Two parallel sessions on Monday afternoon will focus on Coherence, Dynamics, and Polarization (CHX, CSX-1, CSX-2) and on Multi-scale Imaging and Characterization (HXN, SRX, XPD). Tuesday's agenda will include 6 parallel sessions that will permit each of the project beamline development groups to explore first experiment ideas with the user community. The parallel sessions are designed to provide forums to facilitate more detailed discussions about potential first experiments at specific beamlines and the formation of the experiment teams. Specifically, each parallel session group will be charged to: · Identify key research projects and the associated first experiments that may be conducted at the initial suite of NSLS-II beamlines, emphasizing those projects that will take advantage of NSLS-II properties · Facilitate the formation of research teams to generate First Experiment Proposals for submission · Identify key additional team members in such areas as theory and analysis, ancillary measurements, and specimen preparation, needed to achieve the research goals.
