Latest news

- 27 Jan 2010: in recent weeks, I have been improving and fixing bugs in my package for stress and strain analysis using x-ray diffraction. It was renamed to Mutifit/Polydefix and is now freely available online. I also wrote a manual for Polydefix which complements the manual for Multifit. Now that several people are using it, I'll keep better track of changes and improvements I make...
- 27 Oct 2009: New publication in the Journal of Synchrotron Radiation today, along withP. Raterron: In situ rheological measurements at extreme pressure and temperature using synchrotron X-ray diffraction and radiography.
- 14 Oct 2009: New publication in Review of Scientific Instruments today, along with H. P. Liermann, L. Miyagi, H. R. Wenk, G. Shen, H. Cynn, and W. J. Evans: Experimental method for in situ determination of material textures at simultaneous high pressure and high temperature by means of radial diffraction in the diamond anvil cell.
- 07 May 2009: New page on this site, the first in a while: VPN connections to université Lille 1 with Linux
- 07 May 2009: New publication in Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, with Lowell Miyagi: Diamond anvil cell deformation of CaSiO3 perovskite up to 49 GPa
- 26 Feb 2009: Winter holidays, and a new publication in Physical Review B, with Carlos Tomé and Rudy Wenk: Modeling analysis of the influence of plasticity on high pressure deformation of hcp-Co.
