Abstract

Open-GENIE is the successor to the widely used and highly successful ‘GENIE-V2’ program which is used as the principal front-end neutron data analysis tool at the UK’s ISIS spallation neutron source. In this paper, the background and motivation for the ‘Open GENIE’ project are briefly reviewed as is progress to date. Some of the ideas and concepts making Open GENIE unique are demonstrated. Emphasis is given to how these ideas are expected to develop in the future and how they will impact the field of neutron scattering data analysis.
