HighScore Plus

HighScore Plus is the software package supplied with the Malvern Panalytical Aeris benchtop Powder XRD. This software is available on the shared data analysis computer located in 346-904 just to the right of the XRD Powder. You can log onto this computer either directly when you are sitting in front of it or through remote desktop from your own computer. For more details on how to login remotely, please see this note in LabManager - requires login.

Using HighScore Plus

For a guide to use this software, we recommend that users try to follow the tutorial found on LabManager - requires login.

HighScore Plus has several analysis functions for which there is no license in SmartLab Studio II, including Structure Solution, Structure Refinement, and Rietveld analysis. The software is only suitable for powder analysis.

How to add reference spectra for individual crystal structures from the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD) (for DTU users and others with access to the ICSD). We do not have access to search and match in any paid databases, though we do have the Open Crystallography Database. But through DTU's library we have access to the ICSD for individual references when you already know (more or less) what the relevant options are.

-You can also have a look at the [https://wiki.iodp.tamu.edu/display/LMUG/HighScore+Plus+Quick+Start+Guide user friendly High-score quick start guide] on the wiki of the International Ocean Discovery Program, which has a ship, the JOIDES Resolution, aboard which there seems to be a multiuser lab with an Aeris benchtop XRD just like ours. Their wiki has some nice guides, though very oriented towards geological/clay samples.
