Nov. 2 - 4, 2018 Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory
This two-and-half-day workshop is organized within the COMPRES infrastructure initiative to promote the application of the state-of-the-art Nuclear Resonant Scattering (NRS) techniques for characterizing the properties of materials under high P-T conditions of planetary interiors. The purpose of the workshop is to train current and potential scientific users in nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering and data analysis using PHOENIX and SciPhon. Nuclear Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (NRIXS) provides information on vibrational and elastic properties, such as the phonon density of states, sound velocities, and isotope fractionation. NRIXS technique has become a powerful tool to understand the lattice and thermo-dynamics of Fe-bearing planetary materials in extreme pressure temperature conditions. During the workshop we intend to
