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. |

This simple method is very sensitive and , as a laser beam can easily be focused to a few tens of micrometers , the effect of the temperature gradient is small . The hysteresis cycle observed in the transition region ( insert in Fig .

The effect of pressure on pyroxene phase relations has been shown to be important not only in Al - bearing systems ( MacGregor , 1974 ) but also in the Di - En join ( Lindsley and Dixon , 1976 ; Nickel and Brey , 1984 ; Nickel et al .
