Survey for the SAGA GISANS instrument project
Modern technology continuously requires the development of new materials, where the knowledge and control of interface structure and properties becomes increasingly important. For many processes, it is precisely at the interfaces that things are happening. A striking example are the processes that control life itself, from cellular interactions to the whole organism.

Sweden is one of the leading countries in surface science in a broad sense from condensed matter and hard materials, through soft matter to life science. Furthermore, the European Spallation Source has identified a capability gap in the area.

This project will deliver a competitive instrument proposal for a dedicated grazing-incidence small-angle scattering (GISANS) beamline, named SAGA (Surface Analysis using Grazing Angle neutron scattering), which may be constructed as one of the next suite of ESS instruments 16-22. More information about the project can be found at: www.GISANS.se . 

This survey aims to gather initial information to ensure that a dedicated GISANS instrument like SAGA will cover the relevant scientific scope of future Swedish and European users.

Are you currently a frequent user of neutron scattering? *
Have you ever used the GISANS technique? *
If you previously used GISANS, at which instrument(s) did you conduct your experiment(s)? *
If you previously used GISANS , which scientific field(s) was your target area(s)? *
In the current (now operational) GISANS instruments, what central capabilities did you miss (give examples, e.g. too low flux, not low enough temperature, etc.)? *
Did you hear about the SAGA project already? (if not, please visit our webpage at: www.GISANS.se )? *
How would you evaluate the importance of improved GISANS capabilities (e.g. SAGA) for advancing your current scientific program? *
How often would GISANS experiments benefit your research program? *
What size of objects/structure will be your main target? Give one or several ranges? (Note that this relates to the objects you want to study, not the sample size, which is covered in next question!) *
What size of samples would be your main target? (give e.g. min/max) *
If you know, could you specify an estimate for the resolution you would require (in e.g. angle/wavelength/Q)?
Main Target Samples (multiple options can be selected) *
Required
Are time-resolved measurements (e.g. in-situ/-operando) of interest, and what would be the required time-resolution (seconds, minutes, hours,...)? *
Which temperature range is your main interest (you can specify more than one range)? *
Which additional Experimental Conditions are your main interest (multiple options can be selected)? *
Required
Please describe any other special requests for the instrument, sample environments, potential support labs, etc.
Please specify any suggestions for future actions by the SAGA team (special workshops, courses, information, etc.).
