trade paperback. Condition: Very Good. Washington DC: Mineralogical Society of America, 1989. trade paperback. Overall clean and unmarked except for three sentences highlighted on page 24 and some notes page on the volume list on page 2. Previous owner's name written inside front cover. Solid binding. Some yellowing to spine. Light shelfwear to corners. 369 pages including bibliography. 6" X 9" X 0.75" Volume 20 of Reviews in Mineralogy provides examples illustrating the state-of-the-art in powder diffraction, with emphasis on applications to geological materials; describes how to obtain high-quality powder diffraction data; and show how to extract maximum information from available data. In particular, the nonambient experiments are examples of using powder diffraction which has evolved to a point where considerable information can be obtained from ug-sized samples, where detection limits are in the hundreds of ppm range, and where useful data can be obtained in milliseconds to microseconds.
