Anharmonic motions versus dynamic disorder at the Mg ion from the charge densities in pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) crystals at 30 K: six of one, half a dozen of the other

The possible occurrence of static/dynamic disorder at the Mg site in pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12), with or without anharmonic contribution to the thermal vibrations even at low temperatures, has been largely debated but conclusions were contrasting. Here a report is given on the experimental charge density...
