Modern X-ray analysis on single crystals : a practical guide /

This completely revised edition is a guide for practical work in X-ray analysis. Experimental developments e.g. brilliant X-ray sources, area detection, and developments in computer hardware and software have led to increasing applications in X-ray analysis. An introduction to basic crystallography...
