        .. index:: filenames (data field)

        **filenames**: :ref:`NX_CHAR <NX_CHAR>`

          Raw data files used to generate this I(Q)

      **output**: :ref:`NXparameters`

        Eventual output parameters from the data reduction program used

    **(data)**: :ref:`NXdata`


      .. index:: data (data field)

      **data[NE, NQX, NQY]**: :ref:`NX_INT <NX_INT>`

        This is I(Q). The client has to analyse the dimensions
        of I(Q). Often, multiple I(Q) for various environment
        conditions are measured; that would be the first
        dimension. Q can be multidimensional, this accounts for
        the further dimensions in the data

      .. index:: variable (data field)

      **variable[NE]**: :ref:`NX_CHAR <NX_CHAR>`


        .. index:: varied_variable (attribute)

        **@varied_variable**: :ref:`NX_CHAR <NX_CHAR>`

          The real name of the varied variable in the first dim of data, temperature, P, MF etc...

      .. index:: qx (data field)

      **qx[NQX]**: :ref:`NX_CHAR <NX_CHAR>`

        Values for the first dimension of Q

      .. index:: qy (data field)

      **qy[NQY]**: :ref:`NX_CHAR <NX_CHAR>`

        Values for the second dimension of Q
