Panda
Hi and welcome on PANDA! We hope that you will like our instrument.
PANDA team - Astrid, Chris, Alistair, Mario, Michal, Anton, Nikolaos and Sebastian
News
- Preparing the upcoming cycle with thermal neutrons: Installing Cu-111-mono to reach higher energy transers, and Si-111-mono.
- We had a very successful I2NS workshop: https://workshops.ill.fr/event/252/ - thanks to all speakers, participants and organizers!.
- MLZ has a slogan: Neutrons for Research and Innovation
- Rajesh Dutta published his results on multiferroic Ba2CoGe2O7 under external magnetic fields. Thanks to Rajesh and the team: https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.104.L020403.

Publications
Panda publications represent results on magnetic exciations and phonons in
- strongly correlated systems
- frustrated systems
- superconductors
- other model materials
- multiferroic materials
and on hybridization effects of phonons and magnetic exciationa.

Newcomer guide
Are you new to PANDA? You should read our short introduction guide, where you will learn:
- about our accessible energy-moment space
- about our resolution limits
- how to write a proposal
- how to prepare sample and sample holder
Sample Environment
Reaching low temperatures, high magnetic field and high pressures brings serious limitation for sample size and signal/noise ratio. If you consider application of special sample environment (everything below 3 K and/or with magnetic field), you should read about our limitations.
- dimensions of the cryostats
- usual cooling times
- restrictions in movement and reachable Q/E space
- remarks about available high field magnets
Simulations
If you want to learn details about PANDA, the best is to use our prepared configuration files for neutron raytracing programs.
- McStas code
- Simres code
Data analysis
After the experiment, you usually obtain only a few kB of well formated ASCII data produced by our instrument control software NICOS.
- Matlab macro to read datafiles with metadata
- Python macro to read datafiles with metadata
- UFit suite to do advanced data analysis and evaluation
- TAKIN for resolution calculation and fitting
