Magnetic rare-earth ortheferrites of the RFeO3 type (R = rare earth element, model systems for studies and theoretical considerations on magnetic structures in sixties of the last century [[Whi69, Mar70, Ber68], have regained significant interest in the last decade. Their complex multiferroic and magnetocaloric features make them potential candidates for modern applications, e.g. [...]

The single crystal diffractometer HEiDi (jointly operated by RWTH Aachen University and the Forschungszentrum Jülich) at the research neutron source FRM II at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ) in Garching offers a broad spectrum of thermal and hot neutrons, high neutron flux, high resolution and a large access to reciprocal space, low absorption and high sensitivity for light elements. Especially its last features makes HEiDi a valuable tool for extended studies on different materials and components relevant for applications in the field of energy research [...]

Single crystal neutron diffraction, especially with hot neutrons, supports various grand challenges in research as well as method developments. In regard to this the instrument HEiDi at the hot source of FRM II offers features like fast and high quality Bragg data collections up to very large Q (> 20/Å for λ=0.56Å) within a broad temperature range (2K < T < 1300K) and offers since 2019 also high pressure experiments (p < 10 GPa).The full exploitation of these options and the safe support of 24h/7d user operation requires a highly flexible and autonomous software for device control and data acquisition.
