Proposal Approval
• Information on proposal application (JASRI): http://sacla.xfel.jp/?lang=en
• SACLA portal HP (technical information, publications, etc.): http://xfel.riken.jp/
General information
• Two calls in a year.– May (Deadline in June) for Term B (Sept.-Feb.)– Oct. (Deadline in Nov.) for Term A (March-July)
• Two categories – General proposal (non-proprietary proposal)
• The project leaders are required to publish their research results.
– Proprietary proposal• Beamtime fee: 1,098,000 JPY/2 hours
(1,647,000 JPY/2 hours for Time-Designated Proposal)

Review process
• Peer review by external PRC members– Each proposal is rated by 5 reviewers.
– Scientific/technological importance is evaluated.
– The reviewers rate each proposal independently and submit comments for the discussion of PRC.
– Each proposal is ranked based on the average score of the reviewers.
• Technical feasibility and safety are evaluated by JASRI members of PRC.
• SACLA PRC members discuss the priority of proposals based on the reviewers’ results.– Acceptable proposals are selected according to the
the available beam time of each beamline.
After obtaining approval of your proposal
• Contact beamline scientists:[email protected]
• Provide information as early as possible: – Practical (not only conceptual) information for setting up your
experiment.– Final plan should be provided at least 6 weeks prior to your
beamtime.
• Make enough preparation:– Especially for experiments that need exotic setup/bring-in
apparatus.– If necessary, apply for feasibility-check beamtime.
• Do experiment:– Users are encouraged to operate instruments by themselves.– User-friendly platforms and program interface (ExpCotrolAPI) are
available (see Posters)
Typical schedule for preparation by the facility staff
• Final experimental plan: ~6 weeks in advance of beamtime.
• Final schedule and conditions: ~3 weeks in advance.
