Other activities

All persons of our X-ray laboratory are members of the Czech and Slovak Crystallographic Association (CSCA). R. Kuzel is a secretary of the CSCA. The Association organizes conferences, seminars, schools and other activities in the field of X-ray and neutron diffraction in Czech and Slovak Republics. V. Valvoda is a member of the Regional Committee of International Union of Crystallography.

The group took part in organization of the following conferences and seminars : SIZE - STRAIN'95 - X-ray powder diffraction analysis of real structure of matter - International Conference (world meeting, August, Liptovsky Mikulas, Slovakia)

X-ray meetings of the CSCA:

  • 227th meeting - Scientific information, citation analysis, INTERNET (May, Praha)
  • 228th meeting - Results of Round Robin tests (May, Praha)
  • 229th meeting - Four lectures (October, Praha)
Editor's office of the CSCA is located in our department (members R. Kuzel, L. Dobiasova ). Two issues of the journal Materials Structure in Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Technology appeared in 1995.
