Hongwu Xu
The Society recognized Xu as a crystallographer who is equally talented in neutron diffraction, conventional and synchrotron X-ray studies. MSA members who have contributed significantly to the advancement of mineralogy, crystallography, geochemistry, petrology or allied sciences and whose scientific contribution used mineralogical studies or data are elected to the rank of Fellow. The Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) has selected Hongwu Xu of LANL's Earth System Observations group as a Fellow. MSA members who have contributed significantly to the advancement of mineralogy, crystallography, geochemistry, petrology or allied sciences and whose scientific contribution used mineralogical studies or data are elected to the rank of Fellow. The Society recognized Xu as a crystallographer who is equally talented in neutron diffraction, conventional and synchrotron X-ray studies. His research focuses on detailed crystallographic analysis and complex problems of order-disorder and phase transitions important to repository science and the behavior of natural materials under geological pressures and temperatures. Research achievements Xu earned a doctorate in Geoscience (emphasis in Mineral Science) at Princeton University.
