<h2 id="access-to-the-testbed-systems">Access to the testbed systems</h2>
<p>The Excalibur H&ES testbeds are prioritised for access by ExCALIBUR projects, but also available for use by the wider UK research community - contact the ExCALIBUR H&ES <a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=ExCALIBUR%20HES%20testbed%20access%20enquiry">programme office</a> to discuss your requirements. Please note that the testbeds are offered on a best efforts basis rather than a service footing, as befits their experimental status.</p>
