Commission on Powder Diffraction Newsletters

How to receive the IUCr Commission on Powder Diffraction Newsletter

The newsletters will only be available online as printed copies of the newsletter will no longer be produced. The old contact list only included mailing addresses so is moribund. Notification of new newsletters will be made through mailing lists but anyone needing individual notification should send their email address to:
