Temporary Location for User Notes
This location will function as a temporary location for people in the low background community to place notes of possible general interest. The eventual structure of this location is envisionned as being a forum in combination with some sort of document storage database. Please either link to appropriate files in a bulleted list below or create a daughter wiki page and display the information using wiki markup. It's probably best to create an appropriate header for a given subject if one does not exist.
example bullet (
this is a new wiki page and
this is a file)
please place files intended for this space in the :lrgenesis:notes namespace (as above)
some file extensions seem not to be allowed for example in the example at the top of this list there is a text file masquerading as a .pdf to get around this (.doc,.ppt,.pdf are all confirmed as allowed, looking into this)
Database startup notes
James Loach has compiled some useful notes describing a system that could be used as a central assay database for the community. It's essentially a description of the system He's implementing for the Low Background Facility at LBNL. The document doesn't go into many organization details but may serve as a basis for discussion.
database note
AARM Minneapolis collaboration workshop (Feb. 25-26 2011) database directed discussion
Jason Detwiler presented James Loach's CouchDb framework implemented for the Majorana experiment
This framework seems to be well suited to needs for versatility, does not require a specific number of fields, can accommodate files and/or raw data
