The Call for Proposals for the 2027-I cycle for beamlines and microscopes is now open.
- Deadline: September 7, 2026, at 14:00 (CEST)
The Call for Proposals for the 2027-I cycle will cover experiments scheduled from January to June 2027, except for the MX Beamlines, which will cover the entire year.
- Information about the specifics of the beamlines can be obtained here
- Information about the specifics of the microscopes can be obtained here
Note: In the 2027-I call, a new beamline, 3Sbar – Simultaneous Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (HAXPES) and Surface X-ray Diffraction (SXRD), will begin user operation. During this initial cycle, only a limited number of shifts and a restricted set of experimental capabilities will be available. Details are available on the webpage of 3Sbar (https://www.cells.es/en/instruments/beamlines/bl15-3sbar), however, users are encouraged to contact the 3Sbar Beamline staff during proposal preparation.
For those users applying to MSPD, CLAESS and NOTOS: if your proposal goes to the waiting list, it can be moved to another beamline in case enough beamtime is available. Please, indicate your preferred beamline and the second option in the text of the proposal.
Applications for researcher’s access to beamlines and electron microscopes will be submitted the user office portal.
