Popis: It is known that barium disilicate (BS2) glass exhibits two prominent exothermic peaks between the glass transition and melting temperatures in calorimetric experiments, however, their cause is not known. In this work, glass-ceramic samples were produced inside a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and then investigated ex situ with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. We found that the first exothermic peak results from multiphase crystallization although a signature of residual glass is still observed. H-BaSi2O5, and Ba3Si5O13 were directly identified after the first exothermic peak, however, both L-BaSi2O5 and an unknown phase(s) are also formed. Rietveld analysis indicates
