2 2  
3 -//Introductory Paragraph//
3 +SciCat stands for “Science Catalogue” and is generally used as a metadata catalogue for finding back data, addressing thereby the needs of a growing photon and neutron science community. It is used at many large European facilities before it came to DESY in January 2022, like PSI, ESS, MaxIV.

5 +The challenge in photon and neutron science is to find a standard way of naming characteristics for a huge variety of experiments at beamlines, interconnecting several fields like chemistry, material science, biology, medicine, etc – covering many aspects that influences daily life. Then there are various types of research – apart from the physics research one can perform at DESY: inhouse, commissioning, industries.

7 +One of SciCats strengths is that technically one can impose your own schema, the fields to describe your use case.
