New paper out!
My program allows for the easy visualisation of powder #diffraction data in #pdCIF format. Now you can more easily share your data and refinements.
There are also macros to help make pdCIF files when using TOPAS.

@khsacc This is the way. At one workshop I was at, a professor turned up to the pub at 11pm the night before his 10 am talk and proceeded to write his talk then. π¬
#MinCup24 ROUND 1 MATCH 7: #Stibnite vs #Atacamite
Are you rooting for kohl, responsible for dramatic eyes for eons ? Or do you favour the newcomer found everywhere from the Statue of Liberty to bloodworm jaws?

@MineralCup Cranswickite.
Hydrated magnesium sulphate. Structure solved by powder diffraction and named after Lachlan Cranswick, the late great travelling crystallographer.

@stommepoes@CooleyCrypto@iavins No. It doesn't. It provides an extra data point. If you listen to the podcast, the author even says you can pronounce it how you like.
@goldclusters@Robert_Palgrave Generally speaking, ~1 wt% is a good threshold, but depending on the system and data quality, you can go lower; I've quantified 0.05 wt% quartz in corundum.
You need to model it and collect good quality data.
@goldclusters This is dodgy analysis. You need to actually do pattern modelling to show that there are are actually the phases present that you claim are there.
They're could be a shoulder on the 0.93 wt% peak at about 38.5, but that would require actual modelling.
