The structural properties of CaWO 4 , SrWO 4 , BaWO 4 , PbWO 4 , and EuWO 4 scintillating crystals under pressure have been studied by X‐ray powder diffraction, X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure measurements, Raman spectroscopy, and ab initio density functional theory calculations. The results obtained from these studies will be reviewed here and their differences and similitudes discussed. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
