[sdpd] RIET:Clay: ACA 2005 one day powder diffraction software Workshop - Saturday 28th May 2005

["L. Cranswick" <l.m.d.cranswick...@dl.ac.uk>]

A repeat announcement to the one sent out October last year, but also
including information on how synchrotron data can be obtained on your
problem materials prior to the workshop.

ACA 2005 one day powder diffraction software Workshop - Saturday 28th
May 2005

Thanks to sponsorship from the International Centre of Diffraction Data
(ICDD - http://www.icdd.com/) and Canadian Institute for Neutron
Scattering (CINS - http://www.cins.ca/), and under the auspices of the
ACA Powder SIG, there will be a one day software workshop on Structure
Solution and Refinement of difficult structures using powder diffraction
just prior to the American Crystallographic Association (ACA) 2005
meeting: Saturday 28th May 2005; Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin
Hotel, Disney World, Orlando, Florida, USA (immediately prior to the ACA
2005 conference which is being held at the same venue)

Obtaining High Resolution Synchrotron X-ray Diffraction Data Prior to
the Workshop

If you are having trouble indexing or solving the structure and only
have standard laboratory X-ray diffraction data, consider contacting
Peter Stephens at the Brookhaven Laboratory to obtain high resolution
synchrotron data prior to the workshop. This data can then be worked on
with the various speakers during the workshop.
