Abstract:

X-ray crystallography is a science in which mathematics and theory meet with experiment and art. Since its inception over a century ago; many crystallographers have contributed to this science where an appreciation for beauty and an eye for pattern are useful skills for extracting truth from data. X-ray crystallography has been and remains one of the most important tools for describing reality at a foundational level the organization of atoms.
