Database of Potential SESAME Users

We are constructing a database of potential users of SESAME. We would like to include scientists who might eventually become users, particularly, but not necessarily, those with connections to countries in the Middle East, Mediterranean basin region. Previous experience with synchrotron radiation is not required. We seek also those whose present or potential future scientific interests would benefit from the use of an intense, broad spectral range light source such as SESAME. We hope you will take the time to fill out the form and also encourage your colleagues to do the same.

We know from information supplied by members of the SESAME Scientific Committee at the August 1999 meeting in Berlin, and from other sources, that there are several hundred scientists in the Middle East that are now engaged in research activities that would benefit from a synchrotron radiation source. Of these, about 150 have already used synchrotron radiation. In addition there are several hundred citizens of Middle East countries who live outside the Middle East and are working with VUV and X-rays. Many of these are users of synchrotron radiation facilities in Europe, the US and elsewhere.

Some of them would undoubtedly become users of SESAME. Starting in September 1999 we have begun to compile a database of potential users of SESAME using this form and from other sources. Below we present the breakdown by citizenship of those in the database. We expect that this database will grow substantially as the project becomes better known. The database will be used to assist in planning the scientific program and for communication with potential users.
