Powder Diffraction Workshop 2025 (SOLD OUT)
About
The powder diffraction teams from the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering (ACNS) and the Australian Synchrotron (AS) are hosting a 3-day powder diffraction workshop at ANSTO, Lucas Heights. The workshop is for beginners and aimed at post-graduate students and early career researchers.This workshop aims to cover all stages of sample analysis, beginning at sample preparation, experimental setup through to instrument characterisation and qualitative and quantitative analysis. Topics will include: basic crystallography, search/matching, indexing, geometry corrections, proposal writing and tips on planning your experiment. There will be introductory talks on structure solution, quantitative phase analysis and engineering materials.
Demonstration sessions will be used to practically reinforce the material presented and will be split into 2 parallel sessions using TOPAS and GSAS II.
