[GSAS-II] IUCr Congress information

[Toby, Brian H.]

Branton Campbell has asked that the following information be sent to users of GSAS-II. I expect it will be of interest too many.

Dear Colleagues,

The 2020 IUCr Congress in Praha (www.iucr25.org) will be must-attend meeting for researchers involved in the determination and application of high-quality magnetic-structures.  We’ll have broad representation from research groups around the world doing high-impact science.  Abstracts are due by 31 Mar 2020.  We encourage you make this meeting a priority!  

A sampling of the microsymposia and keynote lectures relevant to magnetic structures are listed below.  The program, which includes over 100 half-day microsymposia and 36 keynote lectures, will also offer extensive coverage of related topics such as total scattering, frustration and disorder, modulated structures, quasicrystals, mineral structures, theoretical crystallography, quantum crystallography, topological materials, electronic and quantum materials, functional materials, energy materials, high-pressure crystallography, powder diffraction, x-ray and neutron diffraction, electron diffraction, 3D/4D electron crystallography, cryo-EM, XFEL sources, and many others.  See the full program for details.

Sincerely,
The IUCr Commission on Magnetic Structures: http://magcryst.org
