Abstract

The German project DAPHNE4NFDI together with the European Synchrotron and Free Electron Laser User Organization (ESUO), the European Neutron Scattering Association (ENSA), and European synchrotron and neutron facilities continue the development of FAIR data handling procedures laid out by the EU-funded projects PaNOSC and ExPaNDS. Written by members of these organizations, this ‘white paper’ documents the current status of this discussion.
The topic of data storage, traceability, and data use and reuse in the years following experiments is becoming an important topic in Europe and across the world. Many scientific communities are striving to create open data by the FAIR principles. This is a requirement from the European Commission for EU-funded projects and experiments at EU-funded research infrastructures (RIs) and from many national funding agencies. This is challenging for users of large-scale RIs such as neutron, photon, synchrotron and free-electron laser facilities. Users of photon and neutron (PaN) RIs employ a wide range of scattering, imaging and spectroscopic methods investigating the behaviour of matter with a broad scientific base across physics, chemistry and biology, including engineering, environmental, cultural heritage and medical applications. They produce large data volumes of up to 1 PByte per day in some cases. To ensure all these data are FAIR requires an enormous effort from PaN RIs. It requires not only the expansion of data storage capacity, but also the development and deployment of software for effective data storage, metadata schemes and implementation of effective data pipelines at each individual experiment across RIs. FAIR data also affect the carbon footprint related to large amounts of data and raise questions related to user authentication, rights of access and cyber security. The RIs alone cannot achieve such a transformational process. For successful open science, cooperation of the user communities is essential as they need to create and utilize existing tools to deliver FAIR data. In this white paper, the European PaN community outline and discuss the role and responsibilities of the users and RIs and their common accountability to achieve FAIR data. This paper shall serve as a starting point for a common user and RI approach on the European scale to achieve FAIR data.
公平数据-光子和中子社区一起走向开放科学。
在实验之后的几年里,数据存储、可追溯性以及数据使用和重用的主题正在成为欧洲乃至全世界的一个重要话题。许多科学团体正在努力根据FAIR原则创建开放数据。这是欧盟委员会对欧盟资助的项目和在欧盟资助的研究基础设施(RIs)进行的实验以及许多国家资助机构的要求。这对中子、光子、同步加速器和自由电子激光设备等大规模RIs的用户来说是一个挑战。光子和中子(PaN) RIs的用户采用广泛的散射、成像和光谱方法来研究物质的行为,这些方法具有广泛的科学基础,涉及物理、化学和生物学,包括工程、环境、文化遗产和医学应用。在某些情况下,它们每天产生高达1pbyte的大数据量。为了确保所有这些数据都是公平的,PaN RIs需要付出巨大的努力。它不仅需要扩展数据存储容量,还需要开发和部署有效数据存储的软件、元数据方案和跨RIs的每个单独实验的有效数据管道的实现。FAIR数据还会影响与大量数据相关的碳足迹,并引发与用户认证、访问权和网络安全相关的问题。仅靠RIs无法实现这样一个转型过程。对于成功的开放科学,用户社区的合作至关重要,因为他们需要创建和利用现有工具来提供公平数据。在本白皮书中,欧洲PaN社区概述并讨论了用户和RIs的角色和责任,以及他们实现公平数据的共同责任。本文将作为在欧洲范围内实现公平数据的通用用户和RI方法的起点。

期刊介绍: IUCrJ is a new fully open-access peer-reviewed journal from the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr). The journal will publish high-profile articles on all aspects of the sciences and technologies supported by the IUCr via its commissions, including emerging fields where structural results underpin the science reported in the article. Our aim is to make IUCrJ the natural home for high-quality structural science results. Chemists, biologists, physicists and material scientists will be actively encouraged to report their structural studies in IUCrJ.
