Structural and magnetic phase transitions in mineralsThis volume in Advances in Physical Geochemistry presents the latest synthesis of theory and experimental data pertaining to structural and magnetic phase transitions in a variety of geochemically important minerals. The book is the first to cover the impact of this rapidly progressing area of solid state physics in earth sciences and reflects its growing significance for mineralogy and petrology. |

It is necessary, therefore, first to define the fundamental order parameters and
then to investigate their mutual coupling (Imry, 1975; Gufan and Larin, 1980;
Salje and Devarajan, 1985). In feldspars, symmetry-breaking processes occur ...

Ca-Feldspar In anorthite, the coupling between the displacive order parameter
and the Al, Si ordering order parameter follows a different symmetry pattern. The
hypothetical Al, Si ordering phase transition takes place at high temperatures ...

The major difference between this free-energy expression and the equivalent
one for Na-feldspar is that the coupling between the two order parameters is
bilinear for Na-feldspar and biquadratic for anorthite. The biquadratic coupling ...
