□ Information for General User Beamtime

We encourage scientists from all over the world to submit proposals for general user beamtime experiments at the PAL-XFEL from January to June 2023. The PAL-XFEL has three beamlines, two for hard X-ray experiments (XSS: X-ray Scattering and Spectroscopy, NCI: Nano Crystallography and Coherent Imaging) and one for soft X-ray experiments (SSS: Soft X-ray Scattering and Spectroscopy). The access to the PAL-XFEL is open to the international scientific community given a requirement that foreign users should collaborate with Korean scientists being a local contact. It is also required that all applicants contact PAL-XFEL staff scientists to discuss experimental details in advance of the beamtime application. There is no cost to submit proposals, but a certain amount will be charged when the experiment is conducted, in accordance with the Government policy. Please register as a user of the PAL and submit an application form of the PAL-XFEL proposal via the website (http://pal.postech.ac.kr/paleng/).

 

□ Updates in the First Half of 2023

·  Nanofocusing X-ray optics (K-B mirrors or CRLs) are now available for CXI endstation at NCI beamline.

 

 □ Guidelines for Preparing Beamtime Proposal

The PAL-XFEL is going to provide beamtime in the first half year of 2023 with the following scientific instrumentations.

1. FXS (Femtosecond X-ray Scattering) @ XSS

2. FXL (Femtosecond X-ray Liquidography) @ XSS

3. CXI (Coherent X-ray Imaging/Scattering) @ NCI

4. SFX (Serial Femtosecond Crystallography) @ NCI

5. XES/XAS (X-ray Emission/Absorption Spectroscopy) @ SSS

6. RSXS (Resonant Soft X-ray Scattering) @ SSS

 

In addition to current PAL-XFEL instrument setups, we also welcome applications that require installation of user equipment or special experimental condition. In this case, please discuss with the PAL-XFEL staff scientists prior to the proposal submission.
