Changes to the schedule can occur due to unanticipated technical problems. These changes can occur on very short notice and may result in the cancellation of a scheduled experiment. In most cases, short-term adjustments to the LCLS schedule cannot be made to compensate for unanticipated problems with the facility or problems with the equipment.
Contact LCLS scientists to disucss your proposed experiments and to discuss the latest information on instrument capabilities and machine performance parameters.
