MMS & SAP EEC Process

Three-Step Process

1. Request experiment number from the Science Division (sciencediv@triumf.ca). The email should include the names and email addresses of the Spokespersons, the title of the experiment, and indicate if it is for MMS or SAP.
2. Go to the Spokesperson Portal and create your Draft Submission and fill out all of the information. Be sure to upload the Detailed Statement and Spokesperson Publications as per the outlined rules for both MMS and SAP.
3. Submit your proposal to the EEC. You will have to make a presentation to the EEC and submit the slides for your presentation the week of the EEC meeting.

In the summer 2007 MMS and SAP EEC meetings, Research Proposals and Progress Reports were accepted for the first time via on-line form submission.

Part of each submission involves uploading PDF documents to be included with the Proposal or Progress Report. Experimenters that are required to submit a progress report are those that are seeking Stage 2 approval and those that have been granted Stage 2 approval but have not used any beam time for a two year period (must submit a report to have the Stage 2 status maintained).

The PDF documents that need to be submitted should be generated from the MS Word or LaTex templates below:

• for Research Proposals, and for ISAC Experiments Seeking Stage 2 Approval:
  • Detailed Statement MSWord or LaTeX
  • Spokesperson Publications MSWord or LaTeX
• for Progress Reports:
  • Progress Since Last Report MSWord or LaTeX
  • References and Publications MSWord or LaTeX
  • Student Theses MSWord or LaTeX

For new experimenters that would like screen-by-screen instructions please click on the link below for the PDF of the Detailed Instructions.

• Detailed Instructions (PDF)

A List of beams available for ISAC is available at http://www.triumf.info/facility/research_fac/yield.php?choose=element.

LSPEC Process

Research Proposal and Progress Report Forms for Life Sciences (LSPEC) are available in MS Word format. It is expected that LSPEC will accept on-line submissions by April 2011.
