Proposal Study Panel Scoring Results
Scoring
General user proposals are submitted to the ALS for consideration twice yearly. All proposals are reviewed by the Proposal Study Panel and scored on a scale of one to five, where one is the highest score. Beamtime is then assigned based on each proposal's ranking in relation to all other proposals for a given beamline. In cases where requests for a specific beamline exceed available beamtime, a cutoff score is assigned below which no beamtime is allocated. In other cases, all requests for beamtime are generally granted.
Proposal and Beamline Cutoff Scores for Beamtime Cycle June - November 2002
Scores for all the proposals submitted for this cycle:
The following beamlines had cutoff scores (in brackets) above which no beamtime was allocated. Go to the individual beamline to view the distribution of proposal scores.
