JANA2020 Workshop

We would like to announce 5th Jana workshop in Garching, organised by MLZ Science Group “Structure Research” and the Data Evaluation Group. After series of very successful Jana2006 workshops in 2014, 2017 and Jana2020 in 2022, we are happy to welcome Vaclav Petricek and colleagues back in Garching.

Main topic of the Workshop: recent developments and new functionalities of Jana2020 – a crystallographic program dedicated on solution, refinement and interpretation of complex and modulated structures. The program deals with various diffraction data including single crystal and powder data as well as X-rays and neutron as sources, which can be analysed either separately or in combination.Besides the functionalities for structure solution, Jana2020 can handle multi-phase structures (in both powder and single crystal data analysis modes), merohedric twins as well as twins with partial overlap of diffraction spots, commensurate and composite structures. Jana2020 deals with magnetic symmetries and, in general, contains a number of powerful transformation tools for symmetry (group-subgroup relations), cell parameters and commensurate-supercell transformations along with a wide scale of constrains and restrains, rigid body definition and possibility to define a local symmetry affecting only part of the structure.
