NYU X-Ray Diffraction Workshop
Department of Chemistry, New York University
June 29 - 30, 2016

The Workshop will span two days at New York University, with lectures and hands-on training on the single crystal and powder diffraction. The Workshop will include lectures from various academic, government, and industrial organizations. Faculty, graduate students, postdocs, and industrial scientists are invited to register. Attendees are encouraged to bring samples of interest to the workshop for the hands-on training Master Class, and scientific problems to the Round-Table Discussion.

Aims 

•    Non-specialists can learn the basics of the X-ray diffraction and receive hands-on training on the operation of the instruments.
•    Experts from similar or related areas can share experience and exchange ideas.

Topics 

•    Basics on single crystal and powder diffraction and the instruments 
•    Crystallization 
•    Polymorphism and phase transition 
•    Phase identification, quantitative analysis, texture analysis, and crystallite size measurement 
•    Applications of X-ray powder diffraction in industry 
•    Synchrotron radiation

Speakers and Instructors 

•    Eric Dooryhee, Brookhaven National Lab, NY 
•    Bruce Garetz, New York University, NY 
•    Ilia A. Guzei, University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI 
•    Bob B. He, Bruker AXS, WI 
•    Tony C. Hu, New York University, NY 
•    Yuantao Li, New York University, NY 
•    Brian Samas, Pfizer, CT 
•    Alexander G. Shtukenberg, New York University, NY 
•    Michael D. Ward, New York University, NY

Two Sessions 

•    Lectures in both mornings 
•    Hands-On Training Classes in both afternoons

Prizes 

•    Two quiz prizes provided by Dr. Bob He of Bruker
•    An award for the best student oral presentation

Registration 

•    The number of attendees in the workshop for Lecture Sessions is limited to 40. 
•    The Hands-On Training Master Class component is limited to 10 persons for APEXII and 10 for GADDS. 
•    Registration is free if you register by June 18, 2016. After that, $50 fee will be applied.

Location 

The workshop will be held in the Silver Complex, on the east side of Washington Square Park. For directions to NYU and the Silver Complex go to http://www.nyu.edu/about/visitor-information/getting-to-nyu.html. Enter the Silver Complex at 32 Waverly Place, just east of the corner of Washington Square East and Waverly Place. You will need to present a photo ID to security, who will direct you to the 1003 Silver (10th floor). Drivers can park in the garage located at the Mercer Street.

Environment 
•    Outdoor: NYC Weather 
•    Indoor: The temperature in the lecture room and X-ray lab is maintained at about 72°F (22°C). It would be a good idea to wear a thin sweater or jacket.
