We used 3D electron diffraction to elucidate the crystal structures of XePt₂F₁₀ and XePd₂F₁₀. Based on these findings, we propose structural models for the first noble-gas compound, XePtF₆.

An extended thermal pressure equation of state for sodium fluoride
A PVT equation of state has been determined for sodium fluoride with a range of validity between 12 and 950 K in temperature and 0 and 25 GPa in pressure. This equation of state is based on a fourth-order Birch–Murnaghan expression for isothermal compression and a Mie–Grüneisen–Debye model for thermal pressure.
