Great Lakes Microscopy Society Webinar Series Part 2: EDS and EELS Analysis with HyperSpy
Time:
Jan 29, 2026 12:00 PM EST
Abstract:
The HyperSpy package is a powerful analysis tool for processing all types of data collected from electron microscopes. It covers a wide range of different techniques with a large number of extension packages. Part 2 of this webinar series on HyperSpy will cover the use of eXSpy, a Python package extending the functionality for multi-dimensional data analysis provided by the HyperSpy library. It is aimed at helping with the analysis of X-ray Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS).
