Notes from Breakouts

Summary

facility cooperation would be helpful in terms of getting better support from suppliers, minimizing duplication of efforts, as well as making it easier for users to integrate new unique pieces of sample environment.

In that vein it was mentioned that any attempts to start driving a cross facility standards for SE should check with the ISSE as to what else might be being done on that front.

One item flagged that relates back to data formats and the fact that new SE often generates new parameters that one would want to feed into the final data file collected.

Making more information readily accessible such as current technique development, acronyms,beam logs and manuals etc.

The particular need for reference materials or others ways of validating results from emerging techniques was brought up. Also the fact that means of reducing and analyzing the data that comes out of such new measurements can be a real bottleneck.

Finally the need for extensive physical access to facilities was noted.
