7th Canadian Powder Diffraction Workshop 7th Powder Diffraction Workshop

Organisers, Speakers and Tutors

The Canadian Powder Diffraction Workshops started with its first workshop back in May of 1991 and was organised by Bruce Torrie and Brian Powell. The Rietveld software package used in the afternoon Practical Sessions is the widely used GSAS (General Structure Analysis System) suite written by Bob Von Dreele and Allen Larson at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, USA. This workshop has been fortunate over its life so far that Dr Von Dreele (now at Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago, Illinois, USA) has and still is a regular presenter. Other returning speakers are Angus Wilkinson of Georgia Tech; Ian Swainson and Lachlan Cranswick, both of the National Research of Council; and it is now overseen by Professor Jacques Huot of the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières. This workshop's more recent speaker is Thomas Proffen from the Los Alamos based Lujan Neutron Scattering Center.
