While synthesizing the single crystals of novel materials is not always feasible, orienting the layered polycrystals becomes an attractive method in the studies of angular dependencies of inelastic scattering of x-rays or neutrons. Putting in use the Rietveld analysis of layered structures in novel manganites and cuprates we develop the studies of their anisotropic properties with oriented powders instead of single crystals. Densities of phonon states (DOS) and atomic thermal displacememts (ATD) are anisotropic in the A-site ordered manganites LnBaMn2Oy of both y=5 and y=6 series (Ln=Y, La, Sm, Gd). We establish the angular dependence of DOS on textures of arbitrary strengths, link the textures observed by x-ray and gamma-ray techniques, and solve the problem of disentanglement of Goldanskii-Karyagin effect (GKE) and texture in Moessbauer spectra.

The anisotropic broadening of ZrSiO4 sample is modelled using the Stephenss phenomenological model for anisotropic line broadening and the three dimensional strain distribution in the sample is plotted. The micro-structural parameters like domain siz e and dislocation density are estimated using the variance method.
Two intermetallic FeAl compounds with Al content of 70.68 and 72.17 at.pct were studied using Mossbauer spectroscopy (5 to 296 K) and X-ray diffraction (15 to 300 K). The compounds were found to crystallize in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group (eta-p hase). The collected data revealed that dynamics of the Fe atoms (harmonic in entire temperature range) is significantly different that Al atoms. For the latter strong anharmonicity was evidenced. Moreover, it was found that partial filling of the different Al sites leads to occurrence of low and high symmetry coordination of Fe atoms, which was reflected in occurrence of two distinct doublets in Mossbauer spectra. All spectral parameters of the doublets as well as the Debye temperature, force constant, kinetic and potential energies of vibrations were determined. Those results revealed significant differences between both alloys, likely originating from approaching the stability boundary of the eta-phase for Fe-Al 72.17 at.pct alloy.
57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy measurements were performed on a powdered CuFe2Ge2 sample that orders antiferromagnetically at ~ 175 K. Whereas a paramagnetic doublet was observed above the Neel temperature, a superposition of paramagnetic doublet and ma gnetic sextet (in approximately 0.5 : 0.5 ratio) was observed in the magnetically ordered state, suggesting a magnetic structure similar to a double-Q spin density wave with half of the Fe paramagnetic and another half bearing static moment of ~ 0.5 - 1 mu_B. These results call for a re-evaluation of the recent neutron scattering data and band structure calculations.
We present a 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy study of the two incommensurate magnetic phases in the multiferroic material FeVO4. We devise lineshapes appropriate for planar elliptical and collinear modulated magnetic structures and show that they reprodu ce very well the Mossbauer spectra in FeVO4, in full qualitative agreement with a previous neutron diffraction study. Quantitatively, our spectra provide precise determinations of the characteristics of the elliptical and modulated structures which are in good agreement with the neutron diffraction results. We find that the hyperfine field elliptical modulation persists as T goes to 0, which we attribute to an anisotropy of the hyperfine interaction since a moment modulation is forbidden at T=0 for a spin only ion like Fe3+.

This article introduces software called Phonon Explorer that implements a data mining workflow for large datasets of the neutron scattering function, S(Q, {omega}), measured on time-of-flight neutron spectrometers. This systematic approach takes adva ntage of all useful data contained in the dataset. It includes finding Brillouin zones where specific phonons have the highest scattering intensity, background subtraction, combining statistics in multiple Brillouin zones, and separating closely spaced phonon peaks. Using the software reduces the time needed to determine phonon dispersions, linewidths, and eigenvectors by more than an order of magnitude.
