Abstract
FOR many years after Sir William Bragg moved, with his research team, to the Davy Faraday Laboratory in 1923, their work was confined almost exclusively to the development of powerful X-ray tubes on one hand, and on the other to problems relating to the arrangement of atoms and molecules, and later the distribution of electron density, in crystals of organic compounds. Many members of that research team, now themselves leaders of research, are carrying on structural investigations, on more complex substances, in various parts of the world.
