We are pleased to invite you to our Virtual ISIS Reflectivity Training Course.
The course will take place online via Zoom on four days in November: Tuesday 16th, Thursday 18th, Tuesday 23rd and Thursday 25th of November 2021.
This training school will have a varied content suitable for novices and more experienced users (i.e. is not limited to PhD students):
- principles of reflectometry, including polarised neutron reflectometry
- working principles of time-of-flight reflectometers (including a virtual guided tour)
- data reduction principles
- reflectivity fitting theory (model building approaches, fitting strategies etc)
- error analysis techniques for reflectivity data
- case studies for different science areas and using different fitting software
- live interactive demonstrations and exercises using online resources, such as IDAaaS and Google Colab
- live help and advice for users, who have already collected reflectivity data
The course is free of charge, but spaces are limited due to availability of online training environments, so a short justification is required, such that a selection process can take place in the case of oversubscription.
Successful applicants will be expected to attend all relevant course sessions and to prepare and test their access to online learning resources ahead of the course (details will follow).
