COMPUTING INFRASTRUCTURE

Work Packages main aim

Since 2016, FAIR principles to make scientific data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (www.go-fair.org) have been gaining increasing support as part of a broad “open science” movement. HighNESS also aims to abide by the principles, so that any tools and data created in WP2 on software and WP4 on moderators design can be exploited by other researchers in the neutron-scattering community for other projects. Led by the ESS, this work package will:

create a cloud computing resource, hosted and maintained by the ESS, to share all developments in the neutron-simulation software;
depending on the final product of WP2, tailor the cloud resource to enable users to generate data for the simulation of neutron scattering in the HighNESS moderator and reflector materials;
also tailor the cloud resource to provide users with terms describing the neutrons at the entrance to the ESS neutron beamlines, for simulations of neutron behaviour in instruments;
bring on board a specialist coordinator for the neutron-simulation software, to ensure that it is developed in a way that is compatible with the cloud resource.

About

Drawing input from eight European research institutions, and with a budget of €3m over three years from the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme, the project will produce a groundbreaking design for a second source of ESS neutrons. As a result, it will show how the ESS can be not only the most brilliant neutron source in the world, but also the most intense, able to probe everyday materials and tackle fundamental questions in physics with up to 1,000 times the sensitivity found anywhere else.
