LNF Council

The LNF Council consists of at least six members, typically faculty users of the LNF from a variety of departments. The role of the LNF Council is to assist the LNF Director with strategic planning for the LNF and to provide guidance concerning operations. See this page for more details about the LNF Council. Feedback and/or questions about LNF operation are always encouraged. The LNF council is an important point of contact for independent discussions. You can contact them at LNF-council@umich.edu (please note that this email address does not include the LNF director or managing director, whose emails are blpeters@umich.edu and sandrine@umich.edu, respectively.

LNF Users Committee

The LNF Users Committee is formed by volunteer academic, or non academic, members of the LNF users community. The group meets every other week to discuss matters relevant to the users such as: lab improvement, policies, social activities, outreach, safety, etc. The LNF Users Committee is an important resource for LNF users as it is a path to voice concerns and bring new ideas and solutions. Users can contact the committee at LNFUsercommittee@umich.edu. All users are encouraged to participate and be part of this group. The LNF Users Committee has an important role in LNF outreach activities and the welcoming of new users.

For existing members of the LNF community, the Helpdesk ticket system is the best way to request something from the LNF staff.

In addition to the Contact Us page that is available on the LNF website, we have set up several email list to contact groups of LNF staff.

Virtual training modules

These modules are being developed to supplement in-person training sessions and allow for more effective support while maintaining the required low onsite occupancy and absence of group sessions. The first modules were released in September 2020 and more are being added as they are developped.

LNF Tech Talks (technology seminar series)

The LNF Tech Talks (formerly known as the LNF technology seminar series) aim at educating and better informing users of LNF capabilities and technologies. The talks typically start with an overview of the technology or technical topic, including physics and applications, then provides specifics details about the corresponding LNF capabilities. Finally, there are opportunities for discussion of LNF user specific challenges. All archived video recordings are available here. See below for individual recordings and separate copies of the slides.

During the lab closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we scheduled weekly virtual Quarantine Tech Talks. Slides and video recordings are listed below.

Slides from the 5/29/20 talk on ramping up research activities at the LNF are here and more details are available on the dedicated LNF wiki COVID-19 updates page
