The Raston Lab's Helium NanoDroplet Isolation - Scientific Instrument Simulator (HeNDI-SIS) was designed to emulate a student's classroom experience with a HeNDI spectrometer. The web application is intended to provide users with an overview of the anatomy of a HeNDI. When used, the application allows users to experiment with changing parameters such as the nozzle temperature to better understand the effect of these parameters on the spectra collected by the instrument. The user can simulate collecting spectra at a variety of nozzle temperatures ranging between 13.5 and 20 K.
Original work on this project was started by Isaac Miller
NOTE: The frontend and backend exist together. The backend does not need to be run separately.
