NeXus is an international standard data format intended to reduce the need for redundant software development efforts in the neutron and x-ray scattering communities. As the NeXus standard matures it is starting to be used at laboratories for storing raw data. The Manuel Lujan Jr. Neutron Scattering Center (MLNSC) at Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS) at Argonne National Laboratory have been working with NeXus in an effort to share data and software. MLNSC is now writing files compliant with NeXus and the Integrated Spectral Analysis Workbench (ISAW) software from IPNS is being used with this data. Problems can arise if the standard is interpreted in different ways and information that belongs in the file is not accounted for in the standard. This paper will discuss an inter-laboratory collaboration in relation to a maturing data standard.

Information on the lattice parameter of single crystals with known crystallographic structure allows for estimations of sample quality and composition. In many cases it is suffcient to determine one lattice parameter or the lattice spacing along a ce
rtain, high-symmetry direction, e.g. in order to determine the composition in a substitution series by taking advantage of Vegards rule. Here we present a guide to accurate measurements of single crystals with dimensions ranging from 200 $mu$m up to several millimeter using a standard powder diffractometer in Bragg-Brentano geometry. The correction of the error introduced by the sample height and the optimization of the alignment are discussed in detail. In particular for single crystals with a plate-like habit, the described procedure allows for measurement of the lattice spacings normal to the plates with high accuracy on a timescale of minutes.
The well known Warren-Averbach theory of diffraction line profile broadening is shown to be applicable to time of flight data obtained from a neutron spallation source. Without modification, the method is applied to two very different examples; a col
d worked ferritic steel and a thermally stressed alumina-30% SiC composite. Values of root mean square strains averaged over a range of lengths for the ferritic steel were used to estimate dislocation densities; values were found to be in good agreement with geometrically necessary dislocation densities independently measured from similarly orientated grains measured from electron backscatter diffraction analysis. An analytical model for the ceramic is described to validate the estimate of root mean square strain.
Although originally designed by and for the use of the Neutron and X-ray communities, the flexibility of the NeXus data format makes it equally suitable for storing data gathered from MuSR experiments. Furthermore, its use should open up the possibil
ity of sharing software beyond the immediate muon community; giving access to the many tools that are already in existence for manipulating NeXus and HDF based files. This paper explores the development of the NeXus format for storing ISIS muon data and the associated experimental conditions. The design of an Instrument Definition for the ISIS muon instruments is described and the implementation of an application to translate the present ISIS raw data format to the NeXus format presented. The development of a common muon data format is a topic of active discussion within the muon community; with this in mind, the suitability of NeXus and, in particular, the ISIS Instrument Definition for general application is considered. A number of applications that have been developed to exploit the flexibility of the ISIS muon NeXus file format are described and a scheme for enabling web based browsing and analysis of experiment data is introduced.
This article introduces software called Phonon Explorer that implements a data mining workflow for large datasets of the neutron scattering function, S(Q, {omega}), measured on time-of-flight neutron spectrometers. This systematic approach takes adva
ntage of all useful data contained in the dataset. It includes finding Brillouin zones where specific phonons have the highest scattering intensity, background subtraction, combining statistics in multiple Brillouin zones, and separating closely spaced phonon peaks. Using the software reduces the time needed to determine phonon dispersions, linewidths, and eigenvectors by more than an order of magnitude.
The paper is devoted to the issues of raw binary data documenting, parsing and verifying in astroparticle data lifecycle. The long-term preservation of raw data of astroparticle experiments as originally generated is essential for re-running analyses
and reproducing research results. The selected high-quality raw data should have detailed documentation and accompanied by open software tools for access to them. We consider applicability of binary file format description languages to specify, parse and verify raw data of the Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic rays and Gamma Astronomy (TAIGA) experiment. The formal specifications are implemented for five data formats of the experiment and provide automatic generation of source code for data reading libraries in target programming languages (e.g. C++, Java, and Python). These libraries were tested on TAIGA data. They showed a good performance and help us to locate the parts with corrupted data. The format specifications can be used as metadata for exchanging of astroparticle raw data. They can also simplify software development for data aggregation from various sources for the multi-messenger analysis.
