Description
The Data Evaluation Group DEVA at MLZ is a team of scientists with many years of experience in selected neutron and X-ray methods. DEVA was established in 2022 with the goal of guiding and actively supporting the user community, with a focus on new users. This includes data analysis and data reduction, assistance in extracting further knowledge from the acquired data, and support in the preparation of publications. DEVA helps to ensure that valuable data do not remain unprocessed and unpublished. Another successful activity of the group is the organization of workshops for training in complex analysis software. So far, the group's services have been very well received, the workshops have usually been fully booked, and a substantial part of the previously deferred data could be analyzed and published. We provide an overview of the group's capabilities, summarize its recent activities, and present an outline of future developments.
