General User Access

For researchers who are allocated beamtime through peer-reviewed proposals to conduct experiments at the Advanced Light Source (ALS).

How It Works

General User beamtime is awarded through a peer-reviewed proposal process. [Add how and where to submit a proposal, and the proposal deadlines or cycle.] Once your proposal is approved, we will work with you to schedule your beamtime.

What You’ll Need

A valid User Agreement. If your results will be published, a Nonproprietary User Agreement means there is no beamtime fee. ← User Agreement Page
