Part 4 covers structure determination and validation.Part 3 describes the different methodologies used in powder diffraction.Part 2 covers instrumentation for laboratory X-ray studies, synchrotron, neutron and electron diffraction, 2D diffraction, and special environments (temperature, pressure, magnetic fields, reaction cells).Part 1 provides an introduction to the principles of powder diffraction.This volume of International Tables covers all aspects of the technique with over 50 chapters written by experts in the field. Powder diffraction is the most widely used crystallographic method with applications spanning all aspects of structural science. It will also give you the opportunity to explore Namibia, a rare and beautiful country in Southern Africa.International Tables for Crystallography Volume H: Powder diffractionįirst online edition (2019) ISBN: 978-8-0 Edited by C. We would like to invite you to participate in this exciting event and share your knowledge with scientists from all over the world. On 16 and 17 April a Topas workshop will be presented, followed by the conference from 17 – 21 April 2023. This time the conference will be held at Midgard Country Estate, located about 85 km from Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, and 70 km from Hosea Kutako International Airport. And secondly, an opportunity for the African researchers, to present their own work in these areas to their national and international peers. The intention of this meeting is to firstly provide a forum in which the greater Southern Africa scientific community can get exposure to recent developments in powder diffraction, as presented by internationally recognized leaders. The Southern Africa Powder Diffraction Conference 2023 follows a very successful meeting held in January 2014 at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. Early submission of abstracts is encouraged for those delegates seeking support. Any support granted will be conditional on the acceptance of the abstract submitted by the applicant.

Applicants can click the relevant button on the registration form. Applications for partial funding will have to be supported by a supervisor or a senior colleague. The scientific sessions will include invited presentations and contributed oral presentations as well as a poster session.ĭepending on the successful securing of sponsorships, a limited number of bursaries for students and other young scientists may become available. The Southern African Powder Diffraction Conference will be directed at solid state scientists from chemistry, biology, physics, materials science and related fields such as crystallography, spectroscopy, nano-technology and catalysis. Furthermore, reflectometry, small angle scattering, neutron-based methods and electron crystallography, all important to materials science should all be well represented. The latter including structure determination, Rietveld refinement, non-ambient studies, as well as total scattering-based methods which have extended the reach of powder diffraction to include short range order phenomena, normally associated with amorphous or nano materials. Significant fields of activity now include the study of energy and other functional materials, polymorphism, various catalytic systems and mechanistic details of phase changes, gas solid reactions and interactions, using some powder diffraction related technique. Its domain is no longer primarily limited to qualitative and quantitative analysis of mineralogical and industrial samples, and advances in instrumentation and the development of new methodologies have increasingly been used in studies that address contemporary scientific and socially important challenges. Powder diffraction, along with its affiliated techniques have evolved greatly in recent decades.
