About the School
The school will provide hands-on training on how to determine magnetic structures from powder and single-crystal neutron data. The techniques of representational analysis and magnetic space groups will be introduced and used in a series of examples.
Lectures and hands-on tutorial sessions will cover:
- Symmetry analysis using representation theory and the SARAh program and ISOTROPY Suite
- Magnetic space groups using the Bilbao Crystallographic Server
- Refinement strategies using the FullProf Suite, Gsas2 and Jana
- Magnetic structure determination from powder and single-crystal data (constant wavelength)
The school is intended for graduate students, postdocs, and research scientists who have a working knowledge of crystallographic refinement and will benefit from incorporating the techniques of magnetic structure determination from neutron diffraction into their research.
Software downloads
FullProf, GSAS-II, JANA, SARAh, ISOTROPY and VESTA software as well as those found in the BILBAO Crystallographic server, will be used for hands-on examples. The links to download and access these software is found in the Software section
