Jinn-Wen Hwang wrote the 1972 thesis Thermal expansion of nickel and iron, and the influence of nitrogen on the lattice parameter of iron at the Curie temperature by Jinn-Wen Hwang. Its X-ray diffraction measurements connect the lattice parameter of nickel and iron to temperature and the magnetic transition near the Curie temperature. The institutional record identifies it as a master's thesis in metallurgical engineering; no later biography is inferred from that credit.[ref]

For any indexed cubic reflection,Use for the unresolved molybdenum doublet; the tabulated components are approximately and . These are external spectral constants, not an assertion about the unavailable historical Data Book.[ref]

Reading broad ring centers in the supplied image more closely gives representative radii . Their corresponding estimates are about . Their small scatter understates possible common scale and camera-distance errors. In particular,for a first-order signed perturbation; independent uncertainties are combined in quadrature instead. A reading uncertainty of order , plus the printed-scale and setup uncertainty, justifies a deliberately modest precision:Nickel is a plausible identification, since it is FCC with room-temperature edge about .[ref]

The source photograph alone does not chemically identify the specimen; nearby elemental lattice constants and the scale uncertainty preclude a rigorous unique assignment. The estimate is not reported with artificial precision inherited from pixel fitting.
