- More about Mirror Symmetry: The Mother of all Crystal Symmetries
This textbook covers plane mirrors and mirror-related symmetries, providing new insights into symmetries in crystals and mirror combination schemes. It is essential for students, researchers, and professionals in science and technology, particularly materials science and mineralogy.
Format: Hardback
Length: 224 pages
Publication date: 16 February 2024
Publisher: Springer Verlag, Singapore
This comprehensive textbook, designed for advanced students, delves into diverse aspects of plane mirrors and mirror-related symmetries. It offers fresh perspectives on symmetries in crystals and the intricate schemes of mirror combinations. By incorporating topics such as the Wigner–Seitz unit cell, reciprocal lattice, Brillouin zones, diffraction of crystals, and more, based on the mirror combination scheme, the book greatly assists in understanding numerous other concepts in crystallography. As the sole fundamental symmetry in crystals, all other permissible symmetries in crystalline solids can be derived from suitable combinations of mirrors, known as derived symmetries. A foundational understanding of symmetry in crystallography is crucial for students, researchers, and professionals across a wide range of scientific and technological disciplines, including physics, chemistry, mathematics, molecular biology, geology, metallurgy, and materials science and mineralogy.
