Scheduling Policy for Superconducting Magnets and Dilution Refrigerators

• Experiments must start on a working day, early in the morning.
• Dilution refrigerator experiments should whenever possible not start on Fridays or at a day before a holiday. If a beam block begins at such a day, the mounting and cooldown of the dilution refrigerator should be planned for the day before.
• Dilution experiments should whenever possible start at the beginning of a beam block. However, several successive experiments with the same cryomagnet/cryostat combination are desirable.
• The number of dilution refrigerator experiments is limited. Experiments during internal beam time have to be approved by Joël Mesot (for scientific relevance) and by Markus Zolliker (for availability).
