HighScore?

[karen_m]

Anybody have any experience with Panalytical's HighScore program? For identifying minerals in a bulk soil sample (from an acid mine drainage site, lots of iron-sulfates), what would be the appropriate peak-search parameters?

Thanks,

Hi Karren

I must admit to my shame to being a Bruker and to a less shame a Scintag powder XRD user. So I am not familiar with the PAN highscore software. However I am going into Manchester Uni on Friday and they do have a PAN machine so I will pick the brains of the first person I see.

Hmmmm, unfortunately I couldn't find anyone who could show me the Pan machine. I could just look at the machine doing stuff and read the rather nice note:

DO NOT TOUCH THE COMPUTER WHILST.....

So I can't help. I will try again another day though. Perhaps Friday isn't the best day to visit the chemistry department?
