Advanced course on beamline data analysis
This course addresses the analysis of powder diffraction data. Over three days, this course will bring together synchrotron data analysis software experts with learners and learners' own data. Learners will be guided by the software experts to optimise analysis of their own datasets in small workshops of 5-8 people.
Time: Wed 2024-11-13 09.00 - Fri 2024-11-15 07.00
Location: Ångström Laboratory
Language: English
Participating: many experts
Register here by 10 October.
This Advanced Beamline Data Analysis course is for PhD students/researchers who have some experience of synchrotron or neutron measurements - and have their own powder diffraction data sets from beamline measurements. Gaining experience in optimising the analysis of the datasets is the purpose of the course.
Guiding researchers through data analysis pipelines will occur in small workshops of 5-8 people - plus the software expert. Each software expert will lead a couple of workshops over a 3-day period. Experts representing all the major synchrotron analysis software programmes will be there to run workshops.
Software experts confirmed for the 2024 course include Premysl Beran and Andrew Sazonov (European Spallation Source ERIC), Paul Henry (ISIS Neutron and Muon Source), Adam Sapnik (University of Copenhagen), with workshops also supported by researchers such as William Brant, Johan Cedervall, Rebecca Clulow, Gustav Ek and Martin Sahlberg (Uppsala University).
What will be new in 2024 is that, before the main 3-day programme, there will be some introductory sessions. These sessions will target students/researchers who are new to the field - so that they gain sufficient knowledge of scattering theory so that they can participate in a meaningful way in the hands-on workshops.
The programme will be published here shortly.
