Is this set describing a measurement or a simulation?

Any of these values: measurement | simulation

Integer which specifies the first index to be used for distinguishing snapshots. Identifiers are defined either implicitly or explicitly. For implicit indexing the identifiers are defined on the interval [identifier_offset, identifier_offset+c-1]. For explicit indexing the identifier array has to be defined.

The identifier_offset field can for example be used to communicate if the identifiers are expected to start from 1 (referred to as Fortran-/Matlab-) or from 0 (referred to as C-, Python-style index notation) respectively.

MS_SNAPSHOT: (optional) NXms_snapshot

Hypertext Anchors
