Chemical applications of X-ray charge-density analysis

TS Koritsanszky, P Coppens - Chemical reviews, 2001 - ACS Publications
As X-ray scattering by electrons is much stronger than that of the nuclei, intensities of
scattered X-rays are almost exclusively determined by the distribution of the electrons. Thus …
