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. |

Depending on the sense of rotation of the SiO4 helix , the space group is P6222
or P6422 . On cooling , the atoms shift to less symmetric positions : ( u , 0,0 ) for
silicon and ( x , y , z ) for oxygen ( Table 1 ) . The space groups of the a phase are
