and phi goniometer, generators, collimators, viewing optics, safety enclosures, manuals, control pcs and data collection software. One instrument
was purchased in 1986, the other in 1993. The instruments are free, but are offered as seen without transportation, installation or warranty of
any kind. Please contact S.Parsons@ed.ac.uk before 30 September 2008 if interested.
Announcement: The ECM25 in Istanbul date has been
changed to 16-21 August 2009. This change from August 9th to 14th 2009 is due to events
outside the ECA's control, namely that the Formula 1 Racing Schedule recently fixed their
date for their Istanbul event of August 9th 2009. Thus Hotel bookings (availabilities and costs)
in Istanbul would be dominated by this event's spectators and teams.
Announcement: The StrucClues Site Team is
pleased to report that the short-lived web site StrucClues from 2004-2005 has recently
been revived. Further information is available here.

to the PDF database at low price. A demonstration version of Match! can be downloaded
