Abstract
The diffraction of X-rays by crystalline matter has been well understood for 60 years. In that period a vast amount of practical expertise, in the form of X-ray crystallography, has been developed for the determination of crystal structures on the atomic scale. Low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) has extended crystallography to include crystal surfaces, but, as some of the accompanying papers have shown, data analysis is not so straightforward because of multiple scattering and the need for accurate atomic models. Neither of these is a serious problem in X-ray structure analysis.
