Publisher's Synopsis
International Tables for Crystallography is the definitive resource and reference work for crystallography and structural science.
Each of the eight volumes in the series contains articles and tables of data relevant to crystallographic research and to applications of crystallographic methods in all sciences concerned with the structure and properties of materials. Emphasis is given to symmetry, diffraction methods and techniques of crystal–structure determination, and the physical and chemical properties of crystals. The data are accompanied by discussions of theory, practical explanations and examples, all of which are useful for teaching.
The purpose of Volume C is to provide the mathematical, physical and chemical information needed for experimental studies in structural crystallography. Volume C covers all aspects of experimentation techniques, using all three principal radiation types, from the selection and mounting of crystals and production of radiation, through data collection and analysis, to the interpretation of results. Eleven chapters have been revised, corrected or updated for the third edition.
Audience: This volume is an essential source of information for all workers using crystallographic techniques in physics, chemistry, metallurgy, earth sciences and molecular biology.
