Thermoelastic properties and high-pressure decomposition of MgSO4.11D2O (synt...
The undecahydrate of magnesium sulfate (meridianiite) is likely to occur a major rock-forming mineral in the interiors of large icy satellites such as Ganymede, Callisto and... -
Crystal structures of methanol mono-ammoniate (CD3OD.ND3) and methanol hemi-a...
Mixtures of methanol with water and ammonia dominate the chemistry of cometary bodies, leftovers of the building blocks of the outer planets. We have previously determined the... -
Commissioning of a new continuously-loaded high-pressure piston-cylinder cell
We request two days on Engin-X to carry out commissioning tests on a pair of new piston-cylinder cells and their associated hydraulic press. Although intended primarily for use... -
Thermoelastic properties of ammonium sulfate, (ND4)2SO4, and the P-T dependen...
Ammonium sulfate exhibits a first-order phase transition upon cooling through ~ 224 K at room pressure, from a paraelectric to a ferroelectric crystal. There have been no... -
Thermal expansion and phase transition in magnesium sulfate trihydrate
A recent single-crystal study determined the crystal structure of MgSO4.3D2O, and discovered that a first-order phase transition occurs when the crystal is cooled below 245 K....
