Summary
The microsymposium “Multisources, multitechniques, atypical conditions, in situ” will explore techniques that go beyond traditional crystallography for the determination and characterization of the structure of mineral, metallic, organic, and biological materials. This session will particularly highlight the multidisciplinary nature of structural studies by presenting cutting-edge results that bridge computational methods, spectroscopy, microscopy, and crystallography.
The widespread use of diffraction and scattering techniques, combined with increased flux from synchrotron and neutron sources, as well as continuous advances in detectors and the automation of sample environments, makes experiments under extreme or atypical conditions (temperature, high pressure, irradiation, etc.) increasingly accessible for understanding the behavior of materials and nanostructures under diverse thermodynamic conditions.
Finally, operando and in situ studies are revolutionizing our understanding across a wide range of fields. This interdisciplinary session will provide an opportunity to discuss the latest advances in these areas.
