The Commitee on International Scientific Affairs (CISA) of the American Physical Society (APS) has recently completed a study entitled "Access to Major International X-Ray and Neutron Scattering Facilities". Many facilities and user groups kindly completed a questionnaire on access issues and policies in 2007 on which the study is largely based. The report was prepared by a subcommittee of the Committee on International Scientific Affairs of the American Physical Society.
