9780198553793: P. P. Ewald and his Dynamical Theory of X-ray Diffraction: A Memorial Volume for Paul P. Ewald: 23 January 1888 - 22 August 1985 (International Union of Crystallography Monographs on Crystallography)

Synopsis

Paul Ewald's 1916-1917 masterpiece `On the Foundations of Crystal Optics' describes the selfconsistent interaction of electromagnetic waves with crystals on a molecular level. While astonishing in its detailed predictions for X-ray diffraction, full appreciation of the theory and its utility had to await much later advances in measurement techniques and crystal growth. Concepts introduced in the theory, now known as the Ewald sphere, Ewald summation, and Ewald-Oseen extinction, have become mainstays in diverse areas of modern physics.

This memorial volume, with contributions by leading figures in the field, is an affectionate survey of his life, scientific work, and role in the international crystallographic community.

Review

'One of the tests of success of a volume such as this ... is to consider how well the character and personality of the subject shines through the work. As far as I am concerned this book passes the test with flying colours. This is a splendid tribute to a very great man and should be of interest not only to students of crystallography in its myriad applications, but also to historians of science.'Professor C.A. Taylor, University of Wales, Contemporary Physics, 1993, volume 34, number 3

Ewald as a great scientist and gentle person comes to life in this book, with the authors presenting some glimpses into his private life and providing a well rounded presentation of his major scientific contributions. This is a remarkable monograph, and should be a 'must-read' study for everyone interested in scattering problems. (Benno P. Schoenborn, J.F. McConnell, Acta Cryst. (1994) A50)
