NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) Information Management System (IMS) and Summer School Application

The National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) houses the NCNR which is a National User Facility, chartered to serve the nation’s scientific community by providing unique experimental apparatus for scientific studies using neutron scattering. Since the demand for such measurements exceeds the available resources, NCNR designed an Information Management System (IMS) that implements a peer-reviewed proposal based system to allocate the instrumentation to the best scientific proposals, collect information from the selected external participants to enable their scientific visits to NIST/NCNR, and track the results of those visits. This information is saved in a Privacy Act System of Records and has an applicable Statement and SORN uploaded in the supplementary section.
