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 possibility 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.

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.
The General Single-Dish Data format (GSDD) was developed in the mid-1980s as a data model to support centimeter, millimeter and submillimeter instrumentation at NRAO, JCMT, the University of Arizona and IRAM. We provide an overview of the GSDD requir
ements and associated data model, discuss the implementation of the resultant file formats, describe its usage in the observatories and provide a retrospective on the format.
This work describes the development of a state-of-the-art muon spectrometer for the ISIS pulsed muon source. Conceived as a major upgrade of the highly successful EMU instrument, emphasis has been placed on making effective use of the enhanced flux n
ow available at the ISIS source. This has been achieved both through the development of a highly segmented detector array and enhanced data acquisition electronics. The pulsed nature of the ISIS beam is particularly suited to the development of novel experiments involving external stimuli, and therefore the ability to sequence external equipment has been added to the acquisition system. Finally, the opportunity has also been taken to improve both the magnetic field and temperature range provided by the spectrometer, to better equip the instrument for running the future ISIS user programme.
Combination of low-tensor rank techniques and the Fast Fourier transform (FFT) based methods had turned out to be prominent in accelerating various statistical operations such as Kriging, computing conditional covariance, geostatistical optimal desig
n, and others. However, the approximation of a full tensor by its low-rank format can be computationally formidable. In this work, we incorporate the robust Tensor Train (TT) approximation of covariance matrices and the efficient TT-Cross algorithm into the FFT-based Kriging. It is shown that here the computational complexity of Kriging is reduced to $mathcal{O}(d r^3 n)$, where $n$ is the mode size of the estimation grid, $d$ is the number of variables (the dimension), and $r$ is the rank of the TT approximation of the covariance matrix. For many popular covariance functions the TT rank $r$ remains stable for increasing $n$ and $d$. The advantages of this approach against those using plain FFT are demonstrated in synthetic and real data examples.
A high power pulsed laser system has been installed on the high magnetic field muon spectrometer (HiFi) at the ISIS pulsed neutron and muon source, situated at the STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK. The upgrade enables one to perform ligh
t-pump muon-probe experiments under a high magnetic field, which opens new applications of muon spin spectroscopy. In this report we give an overview of the principle of the HiFi Laser system, and describe the newly developed techniques and devices that enable precisely controlled photoexcitation of samples in the muon instrument. A demonstration experiment illustrates the potential of this unique combination of the photoexcited system and avoided level crossing technique.
