Aims & Scope

Acta Crystallographica Section E, Crystallographic Communications is a fully open-access structural communications journal. It provides a fast, simple and easily accessible publication mechanism for crystal structure determinations of inorganic, metal-organic and organic compounds. The specialised submission, validation, refereeing and publication facilities of the journal ensure rapid and high-quality publication of fully validated structures. The primary article category is Research Communications which contains peer-reviewed articles describing one or more structure determinations with appropriate discussion of the science. The journal also contains an Education and Outreach section which covers any topic of an educational nature related to the general field of structural chemistry. It welcomes contributions on teaching methods, digital resources and tools, outreach and public engagement, cultural and historical aspects of crystallography, as well as tutorials and advice on fundamental concepts of structure solution and refinement. Articles in this section should aim to have a maximum of 3000 words.
