Description
Modern x-ray facilities such as 3rd and 4th generation synchrotrons and Free Electron Lasers (FELs) combined with the modern detectors can generate thousands of diffraction patterns per second. This allows studying of very complex system and also capturing the dynamical processes. But it also results in up to petabytes of data for a single experiment. Such data volume has to be efficiently processed and educed for long-term storage. Our group is strongly involved in the development of the strategies for handling such “big data”, especially in the field of serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX). The summer student would learn how to deal with huge volume of diffraction data and would master the efficient parallel processing of data using DESY computer cluster.
