Excerpt from The Optical Properties of Crystals: With a General Introduction to Their Physical Properties, Bring Selected Parts of the Physical Crystallography
Until recently, in the higher institutions of learning, crystallography has largely been taught only in connection with mineralogy, as an aid to the characterization of minerals and therefore in a purely descriptive manner. But this does not accord with the present state of the science. Haüy, the founder of crystallography, had already made an attempt to explain the forms of crystals, while the investigations of Brewster and the later ones of Senarmont and Grailich, together with those conducted recently by Mallard and others, have given us a detailed knowledge of the regular connection between the physical properties of crystals and the crystal form. As a consequence of these discoveries the conviction has gradually made its way that the form of a crystal is solely a consequence of its interior structure, - of its make-up from the smallest crystal particles, which act on one another with definite forces depending regularly on the crystallographic direction, - and is therefore a physical property of the substance in question. Hessel, and later Bravais and Gadolin, independently, succeeded in determining the entire number of possible crystal forms by purely geometrical methods; while reasoning based on the physical properties of crystals leads to exactly the same results. For the conclusions as to the interior structure of crystallized media - as set forth in the theories of Bravais, Sohncke, Fedorow, Schonfliess, and others - that necessarily follow on this basis, point to the existence of exactly the same kinds of symmetry.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of crystals, delving into their intricate structure and how it influences their unique physical properties. Stepping away from the purely descriptive approach often found in mineralogy, the author takes a more scientific path, exploring the fundamental relationship between a crystal's form and its internal constitution. The book dives into the concepts of symmetry and anisotropy, explaining how these principles govern the behavior of crystals when interacting with light, heat, electricity, and magnetism. It also examines the influence of mechanical forces on crystal structure, highlighting the crucial role that elasticity and cohesion play in defining their overall behavior. Through a detailed exploration of the optical properties of crystals, the author provides readers with the tools to understand and even analyze the microscopic world. The book's insights into how crystals interact with light provide a foundation for understanding not only the behavior of minerals, but also for applications in fields such as chemistry, botany, and zoology. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive and illuminating journey into the fascinating world of crystals and their influence on the physical world around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332523009_0
