NeXus is a common data format for neutron, x-ray, and muon science. It is being developed as an international standard by scientists and programmers representing major scientific facilities in order to facilitate greater cooperation in the analysis and visualization of neutron, x-ray, and muon data.
While classified here as "Physics data", NeXus may be used with any type of neutron, x-ray, and muon science data.
What file extension should I use when writing a NeXus data file? Any extension is permitted. Common extensions are .h5, .hdf, .hdf5, and .nxs while others are possible.
