3rd ILL Millennium Symposium and European User Meeting, 15-17 September

At the end of 2008, the first phase (M-0) of ILL’s modernisation program was completed, delivering 6 new and 8 upgraded instruments and improved infrastructure to the benefit of ILL’s vast user community.
It is timely to review what has been achieved and also to inform the user community about the status of the 2nd phase of the modernisation program. Further details are available on the User Meeting website www.ILL2020-vision.eu 

Long Term Proposals

The ILL has recently decided to allow users from its member countries to apply for long-term beamtime, by submitting a Long Term Proposal (LTP).  LTP are granted to ILL users for projects that extend over several cycles if it can be demonstrated that they bring extra resources or capabilities that are of benefit to users in general.
The deadline for LTP submission is 1 September 2010 (more information here).
