Very nice work. It’s probably my second favourite tutorial right after Amber’s paper! www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
Chemical Crystallography: when are ‘ bad data’ ‘good data’?
There is an increasing trend to reduce diffraction data collection to a set of numbers and the crystallography to a set of criteria. Many of these criteria have been passed on through generations o...

It’s the second time when I was able to sign it. In three other cases the journals did not give that possibility.

The best solution of the problem - stop calling it a problem, just don’t fill it 😅

I noticed that recently these kind of ciecular diagrams got very popular as TOCs; however, not sure if it’s just me but I find them completely non-readable and when I see them I immediately skip the article 😅😅😅 Random example attached

Well, a crystal structure of one the cyclocarbons alone would probably make quite a high-impact paper 😅

Yeah, maybe it’s so well separated that it doesn’t change much…. Here’s a look at the Ewald sphere. It says that the two domauns are related by 177deg rotation so maybe more of a split crystal rather than a proper twin? No idea, don’t have much experience with twinning cases

Large number of stuff I’m crystallizing now works only in tetrachloroethane. Had some terrible disorder with it. After two days of playing with it decided to push the SQUEEZE button ☠️
