Notes from Breakouts

The comments from breakout groups discussing reliability and reproducibility are provided below:

The previous work from the Working group has been documented on the wiki at http://www.cansas.org/wgwiki/index.php/Reproducibility_and_Reliability_Working_Group

Past messages for the mail group are available at: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cansas-rrwg and there is a button marked 'Apply to join group'.

Agreed actions from the meeting on 5 June 2017 include:

  • Prepare some new potential Q, I, and resolution standard materials, covering a broad range of measurements. Then use in round-robin to test utility.
    • A group at NIST (Joe Kline, Ron Jones, Paul Butler) will meet to discuss what type of samples (focusing probably on 'grating-type') could be prepared. Nick Terril from Diamond will participate by telecon.
    • Chris Tasonne will send out an email to the list of participants asking for willing to participate in measurements of new round-robin samples.
  • Work to include multiple scattering in reduction and analysis codes
    • Working group volunteers: Grethe Jensen, Tim Snow, Brian Pauw, Javier Perez, SLAC person? ALS person?
  • Prepare a guide on best practices in data reduction for a few standard classes of experiments.
    • Brian Pauw leading: a number of people wanted to join will email Brian their interest so he can capture the names.
