For those new to Crystallography • Why bother looking into freely available crystallographic software? • Crystallography can help answer questions that may not seem very crystallographic at the time. • In the following screen images, help determine, using diffraction techniques, whethere is Oxygen in the Earth’s outer core. (unit cell volumes to obtain equations of state - EOS) “O 2 volumes at high pressure from KCl. O 4 decomposition: D" as a siderophile element pump instead of a lid on the core. ” D. Walker, S. M. Clark, L. M. D. Cranswick, M. C. Johnson and R. L. Jones, (2002), Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems (G^3), in press. Slide Lachlan M. D.

Powder Sample Preparation and Data Collection – Assumption is that you know about appropriate sample preparation and data collection – However, many hardware vendors might not provide the required flexibility in data collection Slide Lachlan M. D. Cranswick (l. m. d. cranswick@dl. ac. uk) http: //www. ccp 14. ac. uk
Variable Count Time data collection • Main idea here is to increase the raw intensity of selected peak areas to assist in the “required” analysis: (similar to what a CAD 4 does) – Up till now, if at all, mainly done for refinement (e. g. , Hill and Madsen method) • On point detector (e. g. , Bragg Bretano flat plate system), do this by varying the count time in a pre-defined manner – (Can also provide more time effective counting time) Fixed Count Time Slide Variable Count Time Lachlan M.

Quantitative Phase Analysis - is it routinely easy? Based on the IUCr CPD Quant Round Robin (http: //www. iucr. org/iucr-top/comm/cpd/QARR/) The answer seems to be No! A quote from Armel Le Bail’s Tmacle “twinned refinement” software manual seems appropriate: http: //sdpd. univ-lemans. fr/museum/tmacle 92. zip GOOD LUCK IT'S VERY HARD! DON'T YOU THINK SO?

Validation - why take an interest? • For perhaps the same reason that Columbia University Law/Journalism professors teach their students (at least one - circa late 1940’s): “If your mother says she loves you, ” “CHECK IT OUT!!” • If you want to publish anything that can stand the test of time - you need to be validating your results as much as possible.
