Session
MS-90: Structure solution and poorly crystalline materials
Time:
Saturday, 21/Aug/2021:
10:20am - 12:45pm

Session Chair: Angela Altomare
 Location: Terrace 2A

130 2nd floor

Invited: Martin Schmidt (Germany), Katharine Page (USA)


Session Abstract

Structure solution from powder diffraction data has featured at many past IUCR congresses. The development of high-resolution and high-accuracy diffractometers coupled with increasing computational power have pushed the limits of the complexity of tractable problems. The boundary now sits with samples that are poorly crystalline.
