New MRS Short Course on Practical Electron Diffraction The Materials Research Society has announced an addition to its Short Course Program for the Spring Meeting in San Francisco, April 12-16,1993. Ron Anderson, IBM East Fishkill, an experienced short course instructor, will teach a two-day course on Practical Electron Diffraction. The MRS Continuing Education Committee has recognized the needs of members in industry and government laboratories who are being cross-trained in unfamiliar areas or whose formal training was many years in the past. This course will emphasize simple solutions to real electron diffraction problems utilizing a ' 'mathematically nonthreatening" approach, with in-class problem solving. Especially suitable for people working in materials science, ceramics, and mineralogy, this course is directed toward those who wish to enhance their TEM skills by performing routine electron diffraction on the transmission electron microscope and by

identifying crystalline phases from diffraction patterns. Upon completion of the course, graduates will really know the principles underlying the routine operation of an electron microscope in various diffraction modes, how to obtain and measure electron dif
