14. August 2014 - 16. August 2014 Workshop on "The Role of Magnetic Symmetry in the Description and Determination of Magnetic Structures"
Place

Brockhouse Institute for Materials Research at McMaster University, Canada

Description

What: A three-day workshop on the “The Role of Magnetic Symmetry in the Description and Determination of Magnetic Structures”. Hands-on tutorials on the exploitation of magnetic symmetry in ISODISTORT, FullProf, JANA and the Bilbao Crystallograpic Server. Lectures will address both theory and practice. See http://magcryst.org/meetings/cmsworkshop2014/ for details.

When: August 14-16, 2014

Where: Brockhouse Institute for Materials Research at McMaster University. An outstanding summer venue with many scenic attractions nearby (e.g. Toronto and Niagra Falls).

Why: A great deal of new infrastructure (software, data and standards) is evolving rapidly in support of the use of magnetic symmetry to solve/refine magnetic structures. Don’t miss this opportunity to catch up.

Who: Presenters include

  • Mois Aroyo (Universidad del Pais Vasco, Spain)
  • Stuart Calder (Oak Ridge National Lab, USA)
  • Branton Campbell (Brigham Young University, USA)
  • John Greedan (McMaster University, Canada)
