Magnetic Coordinates

(for defining components of magnetic moments)

Important coordinate systems

(1) Bohr Magneton/Angstrom units, with x||a, y||b and z||c
This is the reduced lattice coordinate system, where the magnetic metric tensor (M) is the same metric used for interatomic distances (G).

Past Meetings

23 August 2017, 13.30-14.55, XXIV IUCr Congress, Hyderabad

Carol Brock presented a short overview of the series in both meetings, and outlined a proposal by the Editorial Office for assigning DOIs to some contributions and putting them online as 'early-view' articles ahead of the publication of a complete volume.

Commission meetings

The Crystal Growth and Characterization Commission works mainly via e-mail communication. Given a chance we meet at international meetings where we can enjoy each other's company and get updated about what is happening in crystal growth in our countries. We talk about future plans and about new directions for crystal growth related research and schools. Reports, including the main topics discussed and decisions reached, can be downloaded here for the meetings in
