The thermal expansion coefficients are bigger for low cation-vacancy concentrations and decrease as the pyrrhotites become less stoichiometric. This indicates that the thermal expansion in these minerals is damped by vacancy ordering or clustering. The thermal expansion coefficients for troilite and pyrrhotite are amongst the largest reported for sulphide minerals and their role in the formation of ore textures is discussed briefly.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1180\/0026461056920247","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,2]],"date-time":"2005-06-02T20:10:50Z","timestamp":1117743050000},"page":"205-216","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Thermal expansion of troilite and pyrrhotite determined by<i>in situ<\/i>cooling (873 to 373 K) neutron powder diffraction measurements"],"prefix":"10.1180","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"C.","family":"Tenailleau","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"B.","family":"Etschmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"H.","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"A.","family":"Pring","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"B.
