The deadline for submitting proposals and Letters of Intent: 17th of April 2026 23rd of April 2026
PAC Meeting: 8th of June 2026
Submission procedure: To submit, please fill out the beam request and the proposal template forms. The maximum length of the proposal is 6 pages (excluding cover page, abstract and references).
Please use the following address for submission: hil_proposal(at)uw.edu.pl
Oral Presentation:
The oral presentation of proposals is mandatory and will take place during the open HIL PAC Meeting.
The HIL PAC Meeting will take place at Heavy Ion Laboratory UW. The meeting is planned to be held
in-person, however, the option for on-line presentations is also foreseen.
Available beams:
A list of available beams and energies is available here.
Experimental facilities available at HIL:
- EAGLE – HPGe detector array, contact person: Marcin Palacz, palacz(at)slcj.uw.edu.pl
- DIAMANT proton and alpha charged particle detector used for channel selection in fusionevaporation reactions, contact person: Istvan Kuti, kuti(at)atomki.hu
- ULESE – conversion-electron spectrometer for “in-beam” measurements, contact person: Jarosław Perkowski, jaroslaw.perkowski(at)uni.lodz.pl
- SilCA – particle detector array for Coulomb excitation studies, contact person: Katrarzyna Hadyńska-Klęk, kasiah(at)slcj.uw.edu.pl
- Plunger, contact person: Christoph Fransen, fransen(at)ikp.uni-koeln.de
- ICARE charged particles detector system, contact person: Agnieszka Trzcińska, agniecha(at)slcj.uw.edu.pl
- Internal beam targets irradiation station, contact person: Jarosław Choiński, jch(at)slcj.uw.edu.pl
Before submission of the proposal, it is requested that you make contact with a person at HIL who
becomes the local contact person for the project and helps to clarify all matters related to the experiment
including its technical feasibility. In case you cannot indicate such a person please ask for advice the PAC
secretary. The contact persons of the respective devices (see the list above) must also be informed before
a proposal is submitted.
A call for proposals for future experimental campaigns employing the Fast Timing technique and/or the
Recoil Filter Detector at HIL will be announced later in 2026.
