Crystals and the Fine-Structure of Matter

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Crystals and the Fine-Structure of Matter' is a foundational scientific inquiry into the geometric and physical properties of crystalline substances. Written by the renowned mineralogist Friedrich Rinne, this work explores the profound relationship between the external form of crystals and their internal atomic and molecular arrangements. At a time when the field of crystallography was being revolutionized by new discoveries in X-ray analysis, Rinne provides a comprehensive overview of how the fine-structure of matter dictates the physical characteristics of solids.The book delves into the symmetry, growth, and optical properties of crystals, bridging the gap between mineralogy and modern atomic physics. Rinne examines the concept of the space-lattice and discusses how the spatial distribution of particles within a crystal defines its macroscopic nature. This text serves as a significant historical document in the development of materials science and structural chemistry, offering readers a clear look into the early 20th-century understanding of the microscopic world. Whether for students of geology, physics, or the history of science, 'Crystals and the Fine-Structure of Matter' remains a vital reference for understanding the orderly architecture of the physical universe.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
