Hello! Is it possible to know what is the difference between the different sorts of WU we're downloading ? I've searched in board and in the site but saw nothing. I've read too in boards there was WU of 100k turn and other of 1000k turns... how are they (you) knowing this ??? Of course I saw that they were faster to compute but... And what about tunescan ? Is it possible to see in the site somewhere a "definition" or function of each sort of WU.
And if I'm too curious compare to your free time just say it ;-)

You can see the numbers of turns at the bottom of the graphics.

The tunescan, pro and whatever are simply names that we give the WU so we know which study they belong to.

Sometimes the physicist are looking at the long term stability of the beam, hence the many turns, other times (tunescan) they are interested in finding the border of chaotic motion. In these other ones they do not need as many turns to get the results they need. Expect to see many other types as the physicist find other interesting things to test.
