Acta Crystallographica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on the field of crystallography. It is published by the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) and is one of the most prominent journals in the field. The journal was first established in 1948 and has since been a leading publication for research articles, reviews, and technical reports related to crystallography.
History[edit | edit source]
The journal was founded in 1948, shortly after the establishment of the International Union of Crystallography. It was created to provide a dedicated platform for the dissemination of research findings in the rapidly growing field of crystallography. Over the years, Acta Crystallographica has expanded to include several sections, each focusing on different aspects of crystallography.
Sections[edit | edit source]
Acta Crystallographica is divided into several sections, each covering specific areas of crystallography:
- Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances - This section focuses on the fundamental aspects of crystallography, including theoretical and methodological developments.
- Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials - This section covers research on the structure of materials, crystal engineering, and related topics.
- Acta Crystallographica Section C: Structural Chemistry - This section is dedicated to the study of chemical structures and their properties.
- Acta Crystallographica Section D: Structural Biology - This section focuses on the structures of biological macromolecules and their complexes.
- Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications - This section publishes short communications and reports on crystallographic studies.
- Acta Crystallographica Section F: Structural Biology Communications - This section is dedicated to rapid communications in structural biology.
Impact and Contributions[edit | edit source]
Acta Crystallographica has played a significant role in the advancement of crystallography. It has published numerous landmark papers that have contributed to the development of new techniques and the understanding of crystal structures. The journal is highly regarded in the scientific community and is frequently cited in research articles related to crystallography.
Submission and Review Process[edit | edit source]
The journal follows a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the quality and integrity of the published research. Submissions are evaluated by experts in the field, and authors are required to provide detailed data and analysis to support their findings.
