A year and a half ago, we terminated our operations at the National Synchrotron Light Source and moved our research program to the Advanced Light Source in Berkeley. This move was motivated primarily by the exciting possibilities and research directions made possible by operation at the newer ALS facility. The ALS facility was commissioned in October 1993. We are members of a `Participating Research Team` (PRT) associated with undulator beamline 7.0 at the ALS. This beamline was commissioned for experiments the following winter and spring of 1994. We have thus had about a year to debug the beamline and to try to get some experiments accomplished. Reportedly due to insufficient operating funds, the facility provided beam to users only nine 8-hour shifts per week. In the past year, our program has been devoted primarily to becoming operational at the ALS and to assembling experiments and experimental equipment associated with our program there.
