Goals
and
Scope
|
The PXRR Rapid Access program provides crystallographers with beamtime on short notice
to support ongoing work in home laboratories at its natural pace. Requests for single
visits to any of the
PXRR facilities
can usually be scheduled with a week or two. The program covers all of the
PXRR facilities,
including its two undulator beamlines at
X25 and
X29.
Beamtime on a bending magnet and undulator facility during a single visit can also be requested,
but may take more scheduling leadtime.
Anand Saxena
manages the scheduling of all Rapid Access time.
