About the Workshop
CanSAS-IV took place at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL), home of the ISIS Spallation Neutron Source and the Diamond Light Source. CanSAS-IV was jointly sponsored by ISIS, Diamond, the ILL and the DUBBLE beam line at the ESRF.
CanSAS-IV was aimed at anyone with a particular interest in the use and application of Small-Angle Scattering (SAS) techniques; e.g., Instrument/Beam line Scientists, Frequent SAS Users, SAS Beam line Software Developers, Facility/Third-party Software Developers (particularly those involved with data file formats, instrument/sample environment control).
CanSAS is a "self-help network" whose original stated aim was to promote and simplify the sharing of Small-Angle Scattering (SAS) data - be it light, X-ray or neutron - between Facilities and between Users, but its interests now also encompass the discussion and evaluation of emerging (principally software) technologies and the recommendation of "best practice" (where feasible) in pursuit of this aim.
CanSAS-V
CanSAS-V took place at the National Institute of Science & Technology, Gaithersbury, MD, USA, 29th - 31st October 2007.

Click here for the [canSAS-IV_Meeting_Report.pdf report] on the meeting (PDF).
Elements of this report also appear in Synchrotron Radiation News (2004, 17(5), 34-36) and Neutron News (2005, accepted).
Multimedia
The [canSAS-IV_Programme.htm programme page] has links to the talks, abstracts, posters and software that authors have agreed to deposit with us.
These may be downloaded as PDF documents, or as Microsoft WordTM documents or PowerPointTM presentations
(we are sorry, but it was too big a job to convert everything to PDF!).
Alternatively you can download all of the material that authors have deposited with us in the form of a Microsoft
WindowsTM-compatible installation archive. This will allow you to specify an installation directory, preserving the directory tree structure and
relative links (so that you get a local copy that behaves exactly like these web pages). But beware, the installation archive download is 248 Mb
and expands to 260 Mb! To download the archive, click [canSAS4.EXE here].
As a very last resort, and if you ask us nicely, we may be persuaded to burn the archive onto a CD for you!
CanSAS Discussion WiKis
During the CanSAS-IV and CanSAS-V discussion sessions it was decided that community participation in, and feedback on, the specifications for emerging data file formats of particular relevance to small-angle scattering would be most welcome. Accordingly, we have set up an online information and discussion web site called a Wiki.
The URL of the CanSAS-IV Wiki was http://cansas-wiki.isis.rl.ac.uk/wiki/HomePage.
There were three discussions:
- Proposed Nexus Instrument Definitions for RAW (UNTREATED) Data
- Proposed canSAS 1D TREATED Data File Format
- Proposed canSAS 2D TREATED Data File Format
The URL of the CanSAS-V Wiki is http://www.smallangles.net/wgwiki/index.php/canSAS_Working_Groups.
By participating you will be helping to foster greater integration of software between manufacturers and facilities, neutron and X-ray!
