Data Evaluation Group

The Data Evaluation Group at MLZ offers support for processing and evaluation of experimental data collected at MLZ instruments. This service is particularly focused to support infrequent or new users to facilitate data analysis to obtain meaningful results ready for publication in short time. This includes guidance to data evaluation and reductions steps after the experiments, the use of common software packages and support in publication writing.

Currently, we offer assistance in the methods of diffraction, small-angle scattering, imaging and elemental analysis for measurements taken at the instruments

• SPODI,
• STRESS-SPEC,
• SANS-1,
• REFSANS,
• ANTARES,
• PGAA
• NAA.

We are experienced in using software packages such as FullProf Suite, Steca, BerSANS, FIT2D, DPDAK, VGSTUDIO MAX, Hyperlab, Kayzero. Additionally, support is given to analyze X-ray diffraction patterns from our diffractometers in the Physics lab.
