Costing in proposal of the neutron guide system: The costing estimate is based on the recent company information. The neutron guide is a double elliptic, straight guide with high m-coating (3.2<m<7) optimized to transport neutrons of 0.5 Å wavelength. The costs for the 70m long guide, vacuum housing, support system, installation of the guide system amount to Euro. Costs for the vacuum pumps and vacuum control systems are estimated to Euro. The optical component for the bispectral extraction in the solid-state bender version is estimated to Euro. Sum: Euro
