The FLUENCE proposal is a response to a request from the EPSRC to develop those aspects of the ARTFUL Statement of Need (SoN) for a mid range facility (MRF) that would facilitate a significant increase in the number of UK scientists having access to the FELIX suite of accelerator driven light sources. The EPSRC contract with FELIX has been renewed from the 1st of January 2017 for five years. However if the UK is to obtain the benefits of its subscription to FELIX it will be important to significantly expand and broaden the user community seeking access to these light sources. This follows from the feed-back provided by the panel assessing the last annual report on the FELIX MRF. The panel commented "However the current UK usage as reported is small and could be expanded" and concluded "There is great potential through this subscription, with UK academics being offered access to world-leading facilities. However greater engagement with the broader UK academic community is needed to ensure that this potential is fully realised." This proposal addresses these concerns and demonstrates that the ARTFUL SoN can be refocused to significantly increase the number of UK scientists using FELIX and ensure that the UK gets the full benefits of the renewed access contract. The MRF capabilities proposed in ARTFUL and the consequent cost to the EPSRC hinged on existing facility infrastructure maintained by two external bodies, the STFC-funded ALICE facility and the Radboud University FELIX Facility. Since the submission the STFC has withdrawn support for ALICE, in the form of a promised £6M capital upgrade, in order to concentrate the available human and capital resources at Daresbury for the new CLARA X-Ray machine. This proposal will facilitate the transfer of a significant fraction of the community that sought access to ALICE to FELIX and familiarise this community, and new users identified in the ARTFUL proposal, with its capabilities. The programme will also provide support for the experimental programmes of early career scientists and new users of FELIX. The ARTFUL statement of need lists 116 scientists from 59 departments in 33 UK Universities, Hospitals and Companies seeking to exploit the unique capabilities of the FELIX and ALICE light sources in a diverse research programme. The FLUENCE proposal is supported by a significant fraction of the ARTFUL community and it is expected that the research of 74 scientists from 39 departments in 27 Universities and Companies will benefit from access to FELIX. This is a significant expansion of the current use of FELIX by UK scientists. It is possible that this community can be expanded in the future if it is established that an imaging capability can be established on FELIX. A partial survey of the scientists supporting ARTFUL showed that they have produced over 2440 publications in referred journals in the previous 5 years and currently hold 233 research grants of value £ 358M. ARTFUL received excellent referee reports with all four reports giving the highest grade of 6. There were no negative comments and aspects of the capabilities and potential to support scientific research of both ALICE and FELIX were rated as "unique" and "world leading". The statement of need was the top-rated proposal at the Panel. The proposal is lead by Prof. Weightman who lead the INSPIRE and ARTFUL proposals and will have an Advisory Board to advise the PI and the EPSRC on the progress of the MRF and on how to bring the potential of the MRF to the attention of the UK scientific community.

FLUENCE 提案是对 EPSRC 请求的回应，该请求旨在为中程设施 (MRF) 制定艺术需求声明 (SoN) 的这些方面，这将有助于显着增加使用 FELIX 的英国科学家数量加速器驱动光源套件。 EPSRC 与 FELIX 的合同已从 2017 年 1 月 1 日起续签五年，但如果英国想要从 FELIX 订阅中获益，这一点将非常重要。这是根据评估 FELIX MRF 上一份年度报告的小组提供的反馈得出的，“然而，据报道，目前英国的使用量很小，可能会增加。” ”并得出结论“通过这项订阅有巨大的潜力，英国学者可以使用世界领先的设施，但是需要与更广泛的英国学术界更多地接触，以确保充分实现这一潜力。”该提案指出。这些问题并表明 ARTFUL SoN 可以重新调整重点，以显着增加使用 FELIX 的英国科学家数量，并确保英国获得 ARTFUL 中提出的更新的访问合同的全部好处，以及 EPSRC 的后续成本取决于两个外部机构维护的现有设施基础设施。 、STFC 资助的 ALICE 设施和拉德堡德大学 FELIX 设施 自提交以来，STFC 已以承诺的 600 万英镑资本升级的形式撤回了对 ALICE 的支持，以集中可用的人力。该提案将促进将寻求访问 ALICE 的社区的很大一部分转移到 FELIX，并熟悉该社区以及 ARTFUL 提案中确定的新用户。该计划还将为早期职业科学家和 FELIX 新用户的实验计划提供支持。ARTFUL 需求声明列出了来自 33 所英国大学、医院和公司的 59 个部门的 116 名科学家。 FLUENCE 提案得到了 ARTFUL 社区很大一部分的支持，预计来自 27 所大学和公司 39 个部门的 74 名科学家将参与这项研究。这是英国科学家对 FELIX 当前使用的重大扩展，如果确定可以在 FELIX 上建立成像功能，则该社区可能会在未来得到扩展。对支持 ARTFUL 的科学家进行的部分调查显示，他们在过去 5 年中在参考期刊上发表了 2440 多篇出版物，目前持有 233 项研究资助，价值 3.58 亿英镑，ARTFUL 收到了优秀的审稿报告，所有四份报告的最高等级均为 6。没有任何负面评论，ALICE 和 FELIX 在支持科学研究的能力和潜力方面均被评为“独特”和“世界领先”。需求说明是会上评价最高的提案。该提案由 Weightman 教授领导，他领导了 INSPIRE 和 ARTFUL 提案，并将设立一个顾问委员会，就 MRF 的进展以及如何引起人们对 MRF 潜力的关注向 PI 和 EPSRC 提供建议。英国科学界的代表。
