User Compliance
Users are required, as per the MAX IV T&C, to register an experimental report in DUO within three months of completing their beamtime. The Main Proposer and Principle Investigator are considered responsible in ensuring the proposal group comply with MAX IV’s regulations.
Failure to comply with this requirement will result in, amongst other things:
- Standard Access: A significant deduction in score during the peer review of future proposal submissions.
- Fast Access: Immediate rejection of proposal.
- BAG Access: BAG Reporting differs due to the duration of the proposals, find BAG-specificreporting instructionsin this page.
Adding Experimental Report
To register your Experimental Report, log in to DUO and go to:
- Section: Reporting & Publications
- Link: Experimental reports
The steps when registering an Experimental report are:
In this step you choose which of your proposals you want to fill in an Experimental report for:
- Click the [Select] link to enter a new report
- Click the [View] link to see an already uploaded report
Please note: It is not possible to “update” a current report, but it is possible to overwrite it with a completely new file.
In this step you register the actual report, there are two ways to do so:
- “PDF” – upload the report in PDF file format
- “Textbox” – fill in your report in plain text online
Please note: the third step “Upload figures” is only available to you if you pick “Textbox”, as otherwise you can insert any figures in the PDF you upload.
This step only becomes available if you chose to fill in your report via “Textbox”. Since step two was then “plain text”, you can now upload a file containing any figures relevant for your Experimental report.
You can read more about MAX IV’s T&C on the User Policies page.
