Short Course: 6-10 March, 2000
Bayerisches Geoinstitut, Universität Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany
This five-day short course was first offered in March 1999 and was a great success. Due to the high demand from potential
participants it will be offered again in the year 2000. The course will provide an introduction to state-of-the-art experimental
methods in mineralogy, geochemistry and geophysics as applied to understanding the composition, structure and dynamics of
the Earth's interior. Topics to be covered include high-pressure/high-temperature experimental methods, spectroscopy and
X-ray diffraction at high-pressure, transmission electron microscopy, thermodynamics and phase equilibria, high-pressure
crystal chemistry, equations of state, transformation kinetics and diffusion.
Information on participating / attending:
Requirements: The course is aimed primarily at advanced-level undergraduate and graduate students but is also open to
postdoctoral researchers. Participants should have completed at least 7 semesters of Earth Sciences and should have a basic
background in mineralogy, crystallography, petrology and/or geophysics. The number of participants will be limited to 20. The
official course language is English.
Costs: The course fee will be 120.- DM which will cover course materials, refreshments and the Short Course dinner.
Participants will also have to pay accommodation and subsistance costs (hotel costs are expected to be on the order of 40.-

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
