A journey into reciprocal space : a crystallographer's perspective /

This is a substantially revised and expanded second edition of a book published in the Concise series. The book has been considerably extended and a number of corrections have been made to the text and diagrams. A new chapter (7) has also been added, on distortion mode analysis. Many new diagrams ha...
