DEVA-single crystal Workshop

Friday 17 Nov 2023, 09:00 → 16:00 Europe/Berlin

UYG 02 22 - Pforte (MLZ)

The Data Evaluation Group is pleased to announce a 1-day neutron single crystal data reduction workshop on 17.11.2023 with support of MLZ instrument scientists and software providers. This workshop is intended to introduce to crystallography enthusiasts the basic concepts of single crystal diffraction with emphasis on proteins, and offer a glimpse in treatment of neutron single crystal 
data reduction tools by comparing data treatment the commercial HKL-2000 software as well as the new OpenHKL software, which is being developed at MLZ. The lectures and practical sessions with neutron data examples from Biodiff instrument @ MLZ will thus provide the essential tools to test the new OpenHKL software at a beginner’s level, and have an interactive session with the software developer for providing feedback for its further development. 
The workshop will be held in Garching at the Glaspalast and is limited to 15 participants on a first come, first served basis. Participants are expected to bring their own laptops.
