Practical information

What to do to apply for beamtime on BM32 CRG-IF?

The available beamtime of BM32 (GMT and SUV instruments) for experiments is divided in two parts. Two thirds of the scheduled beamtime depend on the CRG selection comittee and one third on the ESRF one. Both proposals must be filled electronically by the web.

For CRG beamtime ("private" beamtime), only one beamtime allocation per year (proposals submission deadline middle October) please consult the CRGs office website which contain also all the informations you need (Muriel Rigolet 2459 and Marion Glueckert 2502). You can also email the French CRG office (crg at labs.polycnrs-gre.fr) at the Laboratoire de Cristallographie (Murielle Boyer 04 76 88 10 38)

For ESRF beamtime ("public" time), two beamtime allocations per year (proposals submission deadline 1rst March and September) you have to follow the standard procedure by considering the BM32 beamline as the other ESRF beamlines. The dedicated form and other informations can be found in the user guide directory on the ESRF web site.

To help you for this procedure, do not hesitate to contact the local contacts or scientists of the instrument (Multitechnique goniometer or UHV diffractometer) you may have chosen.

 

What to do in case of an emergency?

  • Emergency phone number : 10
  • Infirmery : 33
  • Standard : 9
  • Floor coordinator: 2525
  • ESRF control room: 2490

 

What to call the floor coordinator for?

A floor coordinator is always present in the ESRF hall near the passerelle and BM32 days and nights. He solves technical ESRF problems such as :

  • power cut BM32 beamline
  • water leak
  • warning signal in the neighbourhood
  • etc...

He can often inform you about the beam (for instance long problem during a refill).

 

What call the local contact for?

The local contact has got an experience on the beamline and its equipements. He can set up the optics and the sample environnement to give you proper conditions to do your experiments. He can be contacted at his office or by email.

Although he gives you his personal phone number, please avoid to contact him between 22h and 7am without his explicit agreement.
