2024 CALL FOR PROPOSALS of Low-Energy Beam at RAON
The Institute for Rare Isotope Science (IRIS) is now open for calls to all interested domestic researchers.
There is no charge for users engaged in work, provided they expected to publish their results.
With this call, we will review proposals for beam time at the first Program Advisory Committee(PAC) scheduled for March 2024.
All proposals intended for PAC review must be submitted by January 19, 2024, to allow for technical review before the PAC meeting.
Here is the Call for Proposals.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
The Institute for Rare Isotope Science (IRIS) invites proposals for beam times extended to domestic users in Korea. The primary beams to be provided in 2024 will be Ne-20 and Ar-40 accelerated by the superconducting linac SCL3 at the energies of ~20 MeV/u or less with a maximum current of ~40 μA. Proton beams of 40 and 70 MeV can be provided by a cyclotron up to 10 kW or less.
The beam times will be provided for non-proprietary experiments based on the scientific merits through the review of proposals by the PAC members. There will be no beam time charge for non-proprietary experiments as long as the results are expected to be published.
The experimental systems such as KoBRA, MMS, and CLS can be used for experiments. Details of the experimental conditions can be discussed with the contact person of each experimental system.
The proposals need to be submitted by January 19, 2024 to allow for scientific and technical reviews of the proposals prior to the PAC meeting, which will take place in early March, 2024.
Important dates
The contact spokesperson of the experiment must register on the IBS indico page (https://indico.ibs.re.kr/e/user) and fill in the form to submit the proposal. The content of the proposal should not exceed ten pages including the cover page, references, tables, and figures. Proposals will be kept confidential but will be made available to PAC members and the IRIS staff for technical and safety reviews.
The proposals are requested to include:
1. Scientific motivation
2. Goals of the proposed experiment
3. Experimental details
4. Estimation of beam times requested
5. Experimental conditions such as beam conditions, targets and detectors
6. Summary of Experiments
Safety measures
The Safety Management Office of the IRIS will review all proposals for safety issues.
