ESCA spectra are currently being "worked on" by an ISO commitee (ISO/TC 201/SC3) which is about to propagate a new data transfer standard (based on the 'VAMAS' rather than JCAMP format: see:- "Surface & Interface Analysis", Vol. 21, 615 - 620 (1994) and S.I.A. Vol. 13, 63 - 122 (1988)) I would be interested to hear comments from users on JCAMP or any other favourite format for generalised spectrum transfer.
I would be interested to hear more since we haven't encoutered many ISO standards in our survey of file types. Is this just for ESCA? What community is it coming from and why are they prepared to work towards a standard? Since I don't have the journal above, could you provide a bit more info or perhaps mail a chunk of file? We certainly don't want to duplicate work where standards are emerging. P. Peter Murray-Rust, Glaxo Research & Dev.
