Crystallographic and other Journals

This section has describes the type of article covered and some of the recent contents pages of crystallographic journals. Please let us know which other ones you want to see, and if possible, their World Wide Web address.

There are 2 sections:

ON-LINE journals

There are a growing number of these mostly Free now but may change soon:

Crystal engineering
IUCr journals
Mineralogical Society journals

There are interesting collaborations amongst scientific journal publishers at J STOR and the International Digital Object Identifier (DOI) Foundation

IUCr journals

A major development is 'Crystallography Journals On-line', launched during the IUCrXVIII Congress, which covers new issues of all 6 journals; it is freely accessible during 1999. You should bookmark http://journals.iucr.org now!

Complete text of all the journals, (except for Acta Cryst C, which will follow soon) is available in two formats, HTML or PDF, 3D molecular viewing is supported and citation links can be followed. Dateed Sept 1999

Crystal Engineering

Launched in October 1999, 'CrystEngComm' is a new electronic journal, which publishes peer-reviewed articles from all areas of chemistry that come under the general term 'crystal engineering'.

'CrystEngComm' is the second RSC electronic journal, following the successful launch, in October 1998, of 'PhysChemComm'.

Crystal engineering is a truly interdisciplinary area of chemical research. It cuts across all traditional subdivisions of chemistry, i.e. organic, inorganic, organometallic, coordination chemistry, theoretical chemistry and materials science. 'CrystEngComm' will be at the forefront of this burgeoning area, providing a forum for the publication of high impact crystal engineering articles and communications. It will feature enhanced figures that can be rotated and enlarged to suit a reader's needs, data that can be downloaded for a reader's use and animated movies for time-dependent studies such as crystal growth studies etc. Any software required to view these enhancements is freely available over the Internet.

A subscription for the year 2000 will allow site-wide access to articles published in that year, which can be accessed from the contents pages on the RSC web site, or from a fully searchable database. 'CrystEngComm' readers will benefit from its rapid publication times, ensuring that they read only the very latest research.

'CrystEngComm' is available free during 1999.

The journal is supported by the RSC's free e-mail alerting service, sending details of published articles to interested parties as soon as they are published.

From the Mineralogical Society Bulletin April 2000

Two of the Society's key journals are now available on-line, with Free Access until September 2000. Both Mineralogical Magazine and Clay Minerals/em> can be found from the Society's website at http://www.mineralsoc.org Please send comments to the Production Editor by email: [email protected]

Discussion groups

There are some crystallography discussion groups accessible via the Crystallography World Wide pages.

New one, XRD, added November 1999

The Mailbase service now host a discussion list entitled XRD.

This list is intended to "cover all aspects of the implementation, support and use of X-ray diffraction instrumentation. This includes software for instrument control and for processing of data produced from these instruments."
The aim is to improve the interaction of scientists using X-ray diffraction within any discipline - earth and materials scientists, physicists and chemists through to biological crystallographers.
To join the list email [email protected] with the text:
