NSE Workshop/Tutorial

  • 12:45 pm – 3:15 pm—Afternoon Session 1
  • 3:15 pm – 3:45 pm—Break
  • 3:45 pm – 6:00 pm—Afternoon Session 2

Recent Advances in Neutron Spin Echo Science and Technology

An introduction to quasielastic neutron scattering using neutron spin echo will be followed by several scientific examples in complex systems, incoherent scattering materials and magnetism.  The workshop will end with talks and discussions about ongoing upgrades to the NSE instrumentation at the US facilities.  It is hoped that participants will get a better understanding of this polarized neutron technique, the complex instrumentation and the science that results from this technique.

Analyzing Small-Angle Scattering Data with Modern Python (Download PDF Flyer)

While there exists a plethora of tools for analyzing X-ray and neutron scattering data, it is sometimes the case that these tools don’t have all the features needed to support highly specialized experiments. In this case, users must either wait for the developers to add in the features or attempt to add the features themselves. However, both options can unnecessarily slow down progress of their scientific program. Here, we will teach participants how to use the Python programming language to analyze their scattering data and develop custom analysis workflows. We will start from the basics of Python itself and then continue building upon skills for loading, plotting, and analysis using real-world data. Finally, provided examples will demonstrate how several Python libraries, including both general-purpose (Pandas, xArray) and specialized (sasmodels, periodictable, pyPRISM) tools, can be incorporated in these custom data approaches.
