*First Circular*
*User meeting “Rietveld analysis with BGMN”*
Kindly supported by the TU Bergakademie Freiberg, RMS Foundation
Bettlach, and the German- Swiss-Austrian Clay Group DTTG
This workshop is addressed at persons using the BGMN Rietveld program in
research and education. Basic knowledge in X-ray powder diffraction is
assumed. The content focuses on the use of laboratory powder
diffractometers and the application of BGMN in phase analysis. Examples
in the tutorials are mainly from minerals and rocks.
Computer exercises will be performed on the participants’ own laptop
computers. The BGMN and Profex software are under GNU GPL and will be
distributed for free. Versions for Windows and Mac OS X systems will be
available. Copies of the presentations will be distributed as PDF files.
Participation is limited to 20 persons and will be decided by the
organizers on a first-come-first-served basis. Individual confirmation
will be sent after the pre-registration deadline.
