We have returned to full onsite operations, and awarded PIs are expected to send an experimental team that can effectively run the experiment after initial training. Remote options are available to supplement in person participation and provide educational opportunities.</p> <p>To help plan for your trip to Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and your experiment at HFIR and SNS, the <a href="https://neutrons.ornl.gov/users/plan-your-visit-chk">Plan Your Visit Checklist</a> is available to help keep track of important steps to complete before arriving. You may view additional details below or <a href="mailto:neutronusers@ornl.gov">contact the User Office</a> with any questions on the current guidelines.</p> <p><strong><a href="/sites/default/files/Plan%20Your%20Visit%20Checklist_final_0.pdf">Download the printable PDF of the user checklist here</a>. </strong></p> <dl class="ckeditor-accordion"> <dt>Proposal Confirmation</dt> <dd> <p><strong>Confirm your proposal</strong> via the action item on your <a href="http://ipts.ornl.gov">IPTS</a> homepage. You will be asked to provide information on lab needs, samples, safety and unavailable dates. Confirming these details of your awarded proposal is an important step that should be completed as soon as possible (ideally within 3 days of award notice) to ensure effective planning for your experiment.</p> <p>Be aware that changes to samples and sample environment are subject to facility approval. Samples and sample environment changes that have not been reviewed and approved will not be run. If you make changes to the experiment, you will be required to re-confirm the proposal to obtain facility authorization of the changes.</p> </dd> <dt>ORNL User ID</dt> <dd> <p><strong>Ensure all team members have an ORNL User ID.</strong> Visit the <a href="http://user.ornl.gov">ORNL Guest Portal</a> to create an account to access ORNL computer resources. You will need to register as a CNMS/SNS/HFIR user. Your account (sometimes referred to as XCAMS) will be used for access to the Integrated Proposal Tracking System (IPTS) as well as Analysis for data access and remote instrument control. We recommend checking your connection to <a href="http://analysis.sns.gov">analysis.sns.gov</a> ahead of time and reaching out to <a href="mailto:linux@support.sns.gov">Linux support</a> with any issues.</p> </dd> <dt>Confirm Your Participation</dt> <dd> <p>You will get an automated email from IPTS when your experiment is scheduled. This email will contain a link to report how you will participate in your experiment. You should respond to this invitation quickly to ensure effective planning for your experiment. Your response to the participation notice alerts ORNL user assistants to assess next steps needed to prepare you for onsite or remote access for your upcoming experiment. Failure to indicate your preferred participation type quickly could prevent or delay your ability to participate in the experiment. Remote users should reference the <a href="https://neutrons.ornl.gov/users/user-guide-remote-experiments">User Guide to Remote Experiments</a></p> <p>Once you have confirmed your participation, a user assistant will contact you with additional steps needed to prepare for your potential visit and/or remote access.</p> </dd> <dt>Pre-Experiment Communication</dt> <dd> <p><strong>Communicate with instrument staff</strong> on experiment details. Instrument staff will communicate with user teams about experiment planning via email, IPTS, or Slack. To get started with Slack, log into the <a href="https://ornlneutronsciences.slack.com/">Slack ORNL Neutron Sciences Workspace </a>with your ORNL user ID and password. Private Slack channels for individual experiments are typically created when an experiment gets scheduled. All instrument and experiment team members are automatically added to the experiment-specific Slack channel, provided they have previously joined the ORNL Neutron Sciences Workspace. Joining the Workspace now will ensure immediate access to the appropriate Slack channel(s) once they are created. You need only join the Workspace one time.</p> </dd> <dt>ORNL Site Access Approval</dt> <dd> <p>All users are required to have ORNL site access approval in place before visiting ORNL’s campus. Respond promptly to all ORNL access invitations and emails from the User Office to avoid potential delays to your experiment. Please ensure that the name provided upon registration matches the legal name on your passport, visa, photo I.D., etc. Processing time requires 3 business days for U.S. citizens and up to 20 business days for foreign nationals.</p> <strong>Additional requirements for foreign nationals </strong> <p>Current passport information will be required (excepting LPR/green card holders). The request will not be processed if the passport date provided is expired.</p> <p>All Foreign National visitors are required to submit a curriculum vitae/resume covering all work positions and academic institutions attended. This requirement from DOE headquarters applies to all Foreign National visitors regardless of citizenship, affiliation, or subject being discussed. Before CV/resume submission please ensure that the following criteria is met:</p> <ul> <li>CV must cover the last 10 years of work experience and education if you graduated high school more than 10 years ago.</li> <li>If you graduated high school less than 10 years ago, the CV must cover all work and education experience from high school graduation to current date. The high school's name and graduation date must be included under the education section.</li> <li>Employment should include start and end dates, employer name, job title, and job description.</li> <li>Education should include academic institution name, start and end dates, field of study, and degree earned.</li> <li>Include a list of science and technology specialties.</li> <li>If you have no previous work experience, please note as such on the resume/CV.</li> <li>If there are any gaps between months/years, please explain what was taking place during that time (e.g., school breaks, seeking employment, studying for entrance exams, family leave).</li> </ul>  </dd> <dt>ID and Required Documents</dt> <dd> <p>Users must present the proper identification and travel documents when they arrive at ORNL. Anyone who fails to present these, will not be permitted site access and will be unable to conduct research at HFIR or SNS.</p> <p><strong>REAL ID</strong></p> <p>ORNL is a Federal Facility and will, in compliance with the REAL ID Act, require an acceptable form of identification:</p> <ul> <li>A REAL ID compliant state driver's license</li> <li>A passport</li> <li>A military ID</li> </ul> <p>Users without compliant identification will not be allowed access to ORNL or its facilities (HFIR and SNS).</p> <p>If you hold a driver's license from one of the noncompliant states, you will need an alternate ID.

However, there may be occasions when the neutron sources and/or beam line equipment are not available as planned.</p> <p>When beam time is lost due to neutron source or beam line system issues, we are committed to actively working with users to reschedule beam time to minimize the impact on users. However, to limit overall user community impact, the schedule for unaffected experiments will be maintained.</p> <p>In accordance with our sponsor's policies, please be aware ORNL cannot reimburse users for travel expenses they may incur should the neutron source beam line equipment not be available. It is recommended to only purchase refundable transportation tickets. </p> <p><strong>COVID-19 Guidance </strong></p> <p>COVID-19 guidance and restrictions while working on campus will vary based on changes in the local community transmission levels between LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH.
