Main studies carried out during November:

- analysis of the results obtained so far

- participation in the European PhD School on "Nanoanalysis using focussed ion and electron beams" – Week 1: "Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES): a comprehensive overview" organized by Centre de Recherche Public - Gabriel Lippmann w Belvaux, Luksemburg. Lectures presenting an overview of these three analytical techniques were connected with practical sessions in front of the instruments dedicated to each method.

- participation in seminar given by MSc. Eng. Pawel Kuczera with the title: „Structure of decagonal quasicrystals Al-Cu-Me (Me = Co, Rh, Ir)”. During seminar following information were given: the problem of thermodynamic stability of quasicrystalline phases, a method of preparing single crystal samples, X-ray diffraction experiments, charge-flipping algorithm
