This mineral shows a structural variability under different environments. Because of that, the determination of its structure and, consequently, of its physical–chemical properties is quite challenging. This article presents a detailed structural investigation of the structure of schwertmannite conducted under different approaches: X-ray absorption spectroscopy, Rietveld refinement, and a combined reverse Monte Carlo and Debye function analysis of the whole nanoparticle structure. The schwertmannite model presented here is, to the auhors' knowledge, the most complete model so far reported.}, organization = {This work has been supported by a grant from Labex OSUG@2020 (Investissements d'avenir - ANR10 LABX56).
