Abstract
The structural strain induced by temperature (`phonon pressure') and radiation damage (`defect pressure') is not necessarily correlated because of different underlying structural mechanisms. Here synchrotron experiments may provide new and yet unexplored opportunities. A recent publication by McMonagle et al. [(2024), Acta Cryst. B80, 13-18] is an excellent illustration of this.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials publishes scientific articles related to the structural science of compounds and materials in the widest sense. Knowledge of the arrangements of atoms, including their temporal variations and dependencies on temperature and pressure, is often the key to understanding physical and chemical phenomena and is crucial for the design of new materials and supramolecular devices. Acta Crystallographica B is the forum for the publication of such contributions. Scientific developments based on experimental studies as well as those based on theoretical approaches, including crystal-structure prediction, structure-property relations and the use of databases of crystal structures, are published.
