| Abstract |
Large-scale experimental facilities such as the ILL are designed to accommodate thousands of international visitors each year. Despite the annual influx of visitors, there has always been interest in options that don’t require users to travel to ILL. Remote access to instruments and datasets would unlock scientific opportunities for those less able to travel and contribute to global challenges like pandemics and global warming. Remote access systems can also increase the efficiency of experiments. For measurements that last a long time scientists can check regularly on the progress of the data taking from a distance, adjusting the instrument remotely if needed. Based on the VISA platform, the remote access becomes a cloud-based application which requires only a web browser and an internet connection. NOMAD Remote provides the same experience for users at home as though they were carrying out their experiment at the facility. VISA makes it easy for the experimental team to collaborate by allowing users and instrument scientists to share the same environment in real time. NOMAD Remote, an extension of the ILL instrument control software, enables researchers to take control of all instruments with continued hands-on support from local experts. Developed in-house, NOMAD Remote is a ground-breaking advance in remote access to neutron techniques. It allows full control of the extensive range of experimental environments with the highest security standards for data, and access to the instrument is carefully prioritised and authenticated.
