The Landolt-Börnstein Volume 27 deals with the magnetic properties of non-metallic inorganic compounds based on transition elements, such as there are pnictides, chalcogenides, oxides, halides, borates, and finally phosphates and silicates, the latter presented in this subvolume I.

The magnetic properties of silicates and phosphates are compiled in subvolume 27I. While subvolumes 27I1, 27I2, 27I3, 27I4, 27I5 and 27I6 (already published) deal with orthosilicates, sorosilicates, cyclosilicates, inosilicates, and phyllosilicates, respectively, the present subvolume 27I7 deals with phosphates.

While subvolumes 27I1, 27I2, 27I3 and 27I4 (already published) deal with orthosilicates, sorosilicates, cyclosilicates, and inosilicates, respectively, the present subvolume 27I5 deals with phyllosilicates. Subvolume 27I5 has been split in two parts a and ss; part 27I5ss discusses chlorites, the kaolin group, serpentines, the halloysite and pyrosmalite groups, the sepiolite and palygorskite group, the reyerite and rhodesite groups and related phases, the kanemite and ekanite groups, tuscanite, vertiumnite, aminoffite, surite, cymrite, cavansite, eakerite, magadiite, kenyaite, bikitaite, petalite, prehnite and related silicates. Further subvolumes will be dedicated to tectosilicates and to phosphates. - Silicates are very complex systems, covering large classes of minerals as well as synthetic samples. Their crystal structure is discussed and atomic positions are given. In addition to magnetic properties, results of neutron diffraction studies, nuclear gamma resonance, nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, transport properties, dielectric and optical data are reviewed.
