Basic Crystallography J. -J. Rousseau Department of Physics,
University of Maine, Le Mans, France Translated from the French by
A. James, University of Picardie, France Basic Crystallography
deals with the basic principles of geometrical crystallography
which are introduced through the study of lattices, symmetry
operations and the enumeration and construction of point groups and
space groups. Stereographic projection is used to enable students
to visualise crystallographic structures in real space. The author
devotes the second part of the book to X-ray crystallography,
showing how different diffraction directions depend on the lattice
and how spot intensities are related to the unit-cell. To give
students an understanding of the principles of structural
determination, the classical techniques of diffraction and methods
of interpreting spectra are examined. To tackle the more
challenging aspects of the subject, help is given to the student in
the form of exercises with answers and a computer disk accompanies
the book allowing readers to work through exercises and plot their
own crystallographic data. Written primarily for final year
undergraduate students of physics, chemistry, materials science and
geometry the book will also be useful for engineering students.
