FUNDAMENTALS

Program

 Introduction to matrix algebra  Symmetry in nature and in human life

BASIC CONCEPTS

 Affine spaces vs. vector spaces  Mappings: affine and Euclidean; isometries and symmetry operations  Sets; homomorphisms, isomorphisms, automorphisms  Introduction to group theory: abstract groups, subgroups, cosets

CRYSTALLOGRAPHY IN DIRECT SPACE

 Periodic structure of the crystalline matter  Crystal lattice vs. crystal pattern and crystal structure  Symmetry directions in a lattice  Unit cells: primitive cells, multiple cells, conventional cells in 2D and 3D  Crystal families  Symmetry groups and types of symmetry in direct space o morphological symmetry o symmetry of physical properties o symmetry of lattices o symmetry of the unit cell content o symmetry of crystallographic patterns o HermannMauguin symbols for point groups  lattice systems  Crystal systems  Stereographic projection and the morphology of crystals  Types of crystallographic point groups through the stereographic projection  Generation of space groups. Symmetry operations with and without a glide component. HermannMauguin symbols for space groups  Orthogonal projections of space groups. General and special positions, sitesymmetry groups, crystallographic orbits  Introduction to crystallographic calculations through matrix algebra. Abstract groups, subgroups, cosets  Short introduction to the subgroups and supergroups of space groups  Exercises on the space group diagrams from Volume A of theInternational Tables for Crystallography

PHYSICS OF DIFFRACTION AND CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC IN RECIPROCAL SPACE

 Interaction of Xrays with crystalline matter

 Fourier transforms and convolutions  Crystallographic calculations in reciprocal space  Diffraction symmetry: Laue classes, Friedel's law, resonant scattering  Integral, zonal and serial reflection conditions and their use to determine the space group type  Structure solution and refinement: introductory strategies

CRYSTALLOGRAPHY ONLINE: SHORT PRACTICAL COURSE ON THE USE AND APPLICATIONS OF THE BILBAO CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC SERVER

The aim of the course is to give a tutorial and practical guide to the crystallographic databases and some of the computer tools available on the Bilbao Crystallographic Server (www.cryst.ehu.es). Online exercises will help the participants to get some practical experience in the use and applications of the computer programs in treating problems of theoretical crystallography, solidstate physics and crystal chemistry. I.Databases and computer tools for groupsubgroup relations between space groups 1.Crystallographic databases and access tools i.Spacegroup symmetry databases (International Tables for Crystallography, Volume A: Spacegroup symmetry) ii.Maximal subgroups and minimal supergroups (International Tables for Crystallography, Volume A1: Symmetry relations between space groups) iii.Brillouinzone database 2.Groupsubgroup relations between space groups i.Study of general groupsubgroup pair of space groups; Hermann theorem: twins and antiphase domains; coset decompositions. Supergroups of space groups ii.Symmetry relations between Wyckoff positions for groupsubgroup pairs; Baernighausen trees constructions 3.Structure utilities and tools .Equivalent structure descriptions; structure descriptions with respect to different spacegroup settings i.Comparison between different descriptions of the same structure ii.Computer tools for the study of structural relationships II.Tools for structural phase transitions on the Bilbao Crystallographic Server 1.Structural pseudosymmetry .Methods of pseudosymmetry search using supergroups of space groups i.Search for new ferroelectric and ferroelastic materials 2.Phase transitions with groupsubgroup relations between the space groups of the two phases .Inverse Landau problem i.Symmetrymode analysis of displacive phase transitions Language The official languages of the Schools are English and French. Bilingual tutors will help the participants during the guided exercises.
