I can confirm this.

The organization form of ESS is an ERIC, as Hinko wrote. However, there is already an ESS ERIC, thus the full spelling out of the name as "European Spallation Source ERIC". The full spelling form should be used.

(For the curious, look at https://www.europeansocialsurvey.org/about/ . They were just a bit faster to be an ERIC.)

Google search for "ESS" brings up mostly the European Spallation Source ERIC, though.

Best regards,

Timo (of ESS ICS).

    As far as I know, the official 'ESS' name is:

    European Spallation Source ERIC

    and not just ESS, or ESS ERIC..

    OTOH, I'm not sure how strict this should be regarded as such when it comes to list of facilities that use EPICS. I guess in this case "ESS ERIC" could do just fine.

    As per https://ec.europa.eu/info/research-and-innovation/strategy/european-research-infrastructures/eric_en ERIC stands for 'European Research Infrastructure Consortium'.

    Maybe someone from ESS can confirm.

    Cheers,
    Hinko

    There are a number of important sites missing from the new Website.  Some are on the old one but not the new one.  Some are not on either.

    Facilities on old list but not new list.

    ·         Canadian Light Source

    ·         DESY

    ·         FNAL

    ·         Gemini

    ·         GSI Heavy Ion Research

    ·         HZB

    ·         JLAB

    ·         KEK-B

    ·         LBL (ALS)

    ·         LANCE at LANL

    ·         Pohang (PAL)

    ·         Rare Isotope Project, Korea

    ·         Swiss Light Source PSI

    ·         VECC India

    ·         Varian Medical Systems

    Facilities not on either list

    ·         SESAME (Jordan)

    ·         CHESS (used for many beamlines)

    ·         BESSY (used on some beamlines)

    On the new page the acronym for the European Spallation Source is shown as ERIC, while I thought it was ESS?

    New website that should be used as the reference - Thanks Ralph.

    Dear Colleagues,
    On this 30th year of EPICS (yes it started before many of you were born), a talk for ICALEPCS was proposed. In preparation, I would like to make a more complete list of those using EPICS.
    If you do not see your project on this page:
    https://epics.anl.gov/sites.php
    would you please respond to this email and tell me your
    Laboratory    Project    and location?

    I notice that on this page there are no facilities in China.

    Thanks
    Bob
