Structure Determination by X-Ray Crystallography
Structure Determination by X-Ray Crystallography Books
Product Description
There have been many advances in x-ray crystallography since the production of the third edition of this book, and the authors have endeavoured to initiate a number of them into this new edition. The overall plot of the book has been maintained because we judge that it has been well received in the academic community, but substantial revisions have been carried out and new material and chapters added. In particular, we have extended the discussion of the theory of x-ray diffraction and added new chapters on structure determination from powder data, on macromolecular crystallography, and on computational procedures in x-ray crystallography. We consider that x-ray crystallography is a universal tool for studying molecular structure, a view upheld by the pioneers in the theme, notably W.H. & W.L. Bragg, J. D. Bernal, Dorothy Hodgkin (née Crowfoot), Kathleen Lonsdale (née Yardley), and Linus Pauling, so that the broadening of the scope of the text in this way is fully justified.
We have maintained the do of devising problems to illustrate the work of each chapter, and have provided detailed, tutorial solutions. The appendices control frequently mathematical procedures correlated to the material of the main text.
This edition is accompanied by a suite of computer programs on a compact disc. The programs enable the reader to participate fully in many of the aspects of x-ray crystallography discussed in the book. In particular, the program system XRAY* is interactive, and enables the reader to follow through, at the watch screen, the computational techniques caught up in single-crystal structure determination, albeit in two dimensions. Several sets of x-ray data are provided for do with this system.
