NOBUGS 2026

SIRIUS is a 4th generation synchrotron facility operated by LNLS/CNPEM, with multiple beamlines currently in operation and others under commissioning. As the number and complexity of beamlines grow, there is an increasing need for scalable, maintainable, and reusable software solutions.

To address these challenges, SIRIUS has been evolving its high-level control and orchestration ecosystem...

The ROCK-IT project has developed an operando catalysis automated and remote-operable experimental workflow at DESY's Petra-III P65 beamline. We will present here our control system based on tandem operation of two Bluesky Queueserver workers orchestrating purpose-developed Tango device servers via Ophyd-Async. Experimental results are serialized and streamed to an ASEP::O analysis pipeline...

At the previous NOBUGS conference, the Sardana community presented the outcomes of a collaborative workshop on continuous scans (SOLARIS 2023) and outlined a midterm roadmap to address emerging experimental requirements. Since then, it has been refined through annual Sardana workshops (MAX IV 2025, ALBA 2026), reinforcing a collaborative, incremental process driven by real use cases across...

Elettra, the Italian synchrotron facility in Trieste, is undergoing a major upgrade that will result in a substantial increase in X-ray brilliance and coherence. To effectively exploit such improvement, each beamline requires cutting-edge infrastructure and control instruments to manage a vast ecosystem of diverse tasks, ranging from the photon transport to data collection and processing. The...
