Polymorphism, when a substance can exist in more than one crystalline form yet return to the same liquid or solution phase, is characterized by differences in packing or molecular conformation....

Hi to the science twitter folks on here - I am in need of a large-ish (~1300*1500 mm) optical table to mount a new microscope system, are there any companies (outwith the usual places - v expensive) that anyone might reccommend I take a look?

More than happy to have been involved @MWSChong , nice to see the collective benefit of combining Raman and XRD for rapid phase assessment - hopefully the first joint paper of many on this! :)
Thrilled this is out and thanks to @MartinWard_xtal @iainoswald and people from @CMAC_Centre @cpact @StrathChem for putting this together - more Raman fun!

Chris Taylor presented his work on applying crystal structure prediction at large scale (1000+ molecules) in yesterday's session on Discovering Trends in Big Data at #FD_Data in Oxford. Lots of great discussion at this meeting. (the paper is here: https://t.co/ahOuMxT9hF)

Question for the crystallography folks on here - does anyone know if it is stil possible to find and download the Xpac software for crystal structure analysis? This is something that has been mentioned to me today, but I cant seem to find it online at all - thanks in advance!

Might anyone I know on here be considering the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions fellowship scheme and like to join us in sunny Glasgow for some cool crystal and crystallisation science?

A mesmerising video showing the complex growth of calcite as calculated with crystal grower software - the @CrystalGrowerX team leading the way in crystal growth simulation 🏆
Watch this incredible simulation of calcium carbonate polymorph calcite growth! You can see the dendritic growth. These videos were created by Alex Shield using a new diffusion crystal growth programme that he developed and is to be featured in the next version of CrystalGrower!
