[Ecasig11] Workshop “Methods of high-pressure single-crystal x-ray diffraction", 3rd to 4th of September 2010, Darmstadt, Germany

[Karen Friese]

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to the workshop “Methods of high-pressure 
single-crystal x-ray diffraction” held from September 3rd to
September 4th in Darmstadt (Germany) immediately after the 26th European 
Crystallographic Meeting. You will find the preliminary
program in the attachment. The registration is open at the main ECM26 
website: http://conventus.de/index.php?id=registration.

Single-crystal diffraction provides the most accurate structural data on 
the compression mechanisms of solids. Its methods for
high-pressure studies developed over the last three decades are mature 
and easy to use in both the laboratory and at synchrotron sources.
The aim of this workshop is to demonstrate how to perform single-crystal 
high-pressure X-ray diffraction measurements in diamond anvil
cells, to complete the data reduction and analysis, and to obtain the 
highest-quality data. The workshop will include both lectures and
hands-on exercises. It will be suitable for researchers at all levels. 
Experience in single-crystal X-ray diffraction will be assumed, but no 
previous
experience in high-pressure methods is necessary. Participants who have 
already collected high-pressure data are encouraged to bring their own
problematic datasets for discussion and analysis. Different data 
processing strategies and programs will be presented. The workshop will be
interactive through informal discussions and small round tables of 
specific interest groups, e.g., the software fayre.

Further inquiries about the program of the workshop should be sent to 
andrzej.grzechnik at ehu.es.

Best regards,

Matteo Alvaro, Ross Angel, Tonci Balic-Zunic, Tiziana Boffa-Ballaran, 
Karen Friese, Diego Gatta, Andrzej Grzechnik, Clivia Hejny,
Ronald Miletich, Fabrizio Nestola, & Benedetta Periotto
