Conventional and Micromineral Crystallography of Minerals
Crystallographic investigations, including crystal structure analysis, are a fundamental aspect of the research interests of
Dr. Harlow who maintains a facility for single-crystal
X-ray diffraction.
Products from high pressure experimentation are routinely examined, and
structures have and continue to be refined and determined. A joint
project of
Drs. L�ger and Harlow involves examining chlorine-rich amphiboles from the
Black Rock Forest.
Dr. Harlow carried out some preliminary studies on micromineral
crystallography at the National Synchrotron Light source at Brookhaven
National Laboratories with colleagues from the University of Chicago
and Manchester University.
