MSI Eureka®
MSI Eureka is a dynamic virtual knowledgebase of critically evaluated phase diagrams of inorganic materials. The main scope of MSI Eureka is materials constitution of inorganic materials, i.e. phase diagrams, crystal structure, thermodynamics, morphology, etc. It provides a reliable basis of phase diagram data on inorganic materials systems, such as that there is no more need for multiple retrospective searches and evaluations of the same systems again by the material scientists individually. It is a single resource that offers everything related to materials constitution: from exhaustive bibliography to high-quality evaluated phase diagrams. Materials constitution describes phase relations, crystal structures, thermodynamics and related topics in a material system. The MSI Eureka knowledgebase provides a reliable source of phase diagram data on materials systems. There is no need for multiple retrospective searches or re-evaluation of the same systems again and again by the individual material scientist. MSI Eureka is an ideal resource of evaluated input data for computer-aided modeling and simulations. Relevant for: Materials science, engineering, crystallography, thermodynamics, crystal growth, materials design, alloy development, chemistry, physics, industrial engineering across multiple industries.

MSIT Phase Diagram Evaluations:
Critical evaluation involves the resolution of contradictory published results, comparing and analyzing conclusions, and interpreting results based on assessing all available knowledge. MSIT evaluation reports discuss and reconcile conflicting data and rationalize the choice of the most appropriate data sets. The evaluation reports are authentic publications, peer reviewed under the auspices of the MSIT® Editorial Board. Following a brief description of the relevant scientific literature and the accepted associated binary alloy systems, important features of the system are described under appropriate headings, such as 'Solid Phases', 'Invariant Equilibria' and 'Thermodynamics'. Using the evaluation of the scientific literature as a guide, diagrams are drawn and presented (isothermal and vertical sections, projections) that reflect the current state of knowledge relating to phase equilibria in the system. As the diagrams themselves are the result of the meticulous assessment of information produced by different methods and from different sources, it is often necessary for phase boundaries to be drawn in such a way as to give not only the best representation of the phase equilibria in any one section, but also to assure consistency with all diagrams, text and tables for the system. This is where the 'evaluation' differs from 'review', the latter being generally just a listing and brief discussion of relevant literature. The evaluation reports are an ideal source for computer-aided modeling and simulations, and are a repository of reliable validated data. The following data categories belog to MSIT Evaluations: "Ternary Evaluations", "Binary Evaluations", "p-T-x Diagrams".

MSIT Phase Diagrams Compilations:
Phase Diagram Compilations comprise 2 categories:

1) "Diagrams as Published" are binary and ternary phase diagrams as published in the literature. They are collected from literature, uniformly edited by MSI, supplemented with crystallographic data of the phases from reference handbooks. They are not critically evaluated by MSIT.

and

2) "Research Results" are extended extracts of the materials constitution data from the literature. Arranged after materials systems. Initially “Red Book”, till 1996. From 2021 includes original brief publications.

Links to Literature:
the bibliographic data base "Links to Literature" covering over 76,700 systems with over 501,400 bibliographic citations, making the link between a material system and all the publications where data on materials constitution are reported, for each individual system. It covers practically all relevant publications from 1830 up to the present, providing a valuable and constantly growing information source. Element combinations not listed within the category "Links to Literature" most likely have never been studied.

MSIT® - Materials Science International Team®
MSI Eureka contents are created with the efforts of MSIT®, Materials Science International Team - MSIT® - a network of materials scientists and laboratories competent in materials' constitution and the experimental & computer thermodynamics of materials. The team formed the critical evaluation program, which resulted in the publication of the series Ternary Alloys. Topical monographs and a book series RED BOOK have been prepared since then and are also planned for the future. MSI controls these global efforts more and more with this Internet based workplace. The evaluation programs are also coordinated with other programs through APDIC, the Alloy Phase Diagram International Commission. MSIT® is a community of scientists highly competent in materials constitution, thermodynamics or crystallography in addition to their individual specific expertise. The joint competence of MSIT® serves an enormously wide field of materials science and applications. The team started in 1984 and celebrated its 36th Annual Workshop in April 2022. Among the MSIT® members there is always a limited number of post-doc and selected students working side by side with senior experts, during the annual workshops and in remotely ongoing project teams. MSIT organizes the MSIT Evaluation Programs, including Binary Evaluation Program and Ternary Evaluation Program. In 2017 MSIT® started a series of educational events in teh field of materials chemistry: MSIT Winter School on Materials Chemistry. The aim of the Winter Schools is to provide the opportunity to learn the techniques that are important in understanding phase equilibria, thermodynamics and closely associated subjects. Following the huge success of the MSIT Winter Schools, MSI and MSIT® initiated a new series of advanced training events. The aim of 'The MSIT Advanced Schools' is to take an important topic, or two closely related topics, in Materials Science and give training to a much higher level than is offered at the annual Winter School. The 'MSIT Advanced Schools' are aimed at materials scientists who may be already familiar with the subject but are looking for a deeper understanding.
