User access to the ELBE - Center for High-power Radiation Sources is managed in line with the recommendations of the European Charter for Access to Research Infrastructures. It is quality-based and relies on a peer-review procedure based on research proposals. The primary selection criterion is scientific excellence. Among scientifically equally ranked proposals priority is given to users from countries without national FEL and from EU-13 states, to PhD students and to women PIs. Calls for proposals are published twice per year, proposals are submitted electronically using the portal GATE.
ELBE as a whole is operated 24 h, 7 days/week, beamtime is granted in units of 12 hours from 6:00 to 18:00 and from 18:00 to 6:00 respectively.

Note that this is the only envisaged call for FLASH proposals in 2020! This is because we are planning our first major (~7 months) shutdown for upgrades within the FLASH2020+ project for the year 2021 and will hence only provide about half of the usual annual beamtime for FEL experiments. For that reason, the present call relates to the run period in the full year 2021 and potentially granted beamtime will be allocated before as well as after the shutdown.
