What would be the X-ray diffraction intensity of a ternary compound with one atom spatially fluctuating inside the octahedra?

If a ternary ABC2 compound with two sublattices, say BC4 and AC8, where B and C are at the center of tetrahedra and octahedra respectively, suppose if A atom is randomly fluctuating inside the AC8...

Is there any possible way to distinguish between ETT and TPQT from high pressure XRD, Raman and resistivity studies?

ARPES study is the direct evidence for the topological insulating state. However, some of the trivial insulators can be transformed into non-trivial topological insulators by alloying, applying...

Physics: Why do we describe light by referring to its wavelength, but microwaves and radar pulses by referring to their frequency?

In physics, the description of the properties of light generally refers to its wavelength (nm), while in the range of microwaves and radio waves we refer to the frequency of a signal (e.g. kHz or...

Why are the velocities so high in my Boussinesq approximation Fluent simulation?

Hello, I have a mechanism where air rises due to convective flows. In this simulation, nothing is driving the air except this. I understand that the Boussinesq approximation only works for small...

Should we reduce the standard unit of length to 0.31951540592 meter ?

The reasoning behind this question is to align the ratios of the proton potential in energy per charge to the speed of light in distance per time. As these two dimensions appear to be related,...
