Physical Crystallography Group (PCG) & Structural Condensed Matter Physics (SCMP)
The PCG of the British Crystallographic Association (BCA) and the SCMP of the Institute of Physics (IoP) are two names for the same group. The aim of the group is to promote and support physical crystallography in all its current forms. We organise meetings and workshops, award a thesis prize every year and a lecture prize biannually. There is also limited funding to provide student bursaries to help towards the cost of attending international conferences.
The aim of this website it to provide information to our members and hopefully attract new members from the community. The site is in the form of a ‘wiki’, which allows users of the site to add their own content and comment on others. In this way it is hoped it will be a dynamic home for the physical crystallography community.
PCG-SCMP Winter Meeting "New Results from New Facilities" 5th and 6th November 2009
We are holding our Winter Meeting at Cosener’s House in Abingdon on Thursday 5th and Friday 6th November. The meeting will once again be held jointly with the ISIS Crystallography User Group meeting. There is no registration fee and ISIS will cover reasonable travel costs for UK researchers attending the whole meeting. There will be a poster session and the opportunity for a small number of junior researchers to give short oral presentations.
Confirmed speakers (as of 22/09/09) are:
Simon Clarke (Oxford) "title TBC"
Aurora Cruz-Cabeza (Cambridge) "title TBC" [PCG PANalytical Thesis Prize winner]
Martin Jones (Oxford) "Diffraction studies of hydrogen storage materials"
Pascal Manuel (ISIS) "title TBC"
Stephen Moggach (Edinburgh) "Big squeeze, recent developments in high-pressure single crystal diffraction on I19 at Diamond"
Lucian Pascut (Bristol) "Charge order in the triangular metallic antiferromagnet AgNiO2 probed by single crystal resonant X-ray scattering using I16 at Diamond"
Paul Raithby (Bath) "Photocrystallography - from static to dynamic"
Carlo Vecchini (ISIS) "title TBC"
