Aug 25, 2021 · Michael Woolfson contributed enormously to the theory and practice of X-ray crystallography for almost 60 years. He extended the theory of ‘direct methods’, which provided a general solution of the crystallographic phase problem from the measured diffraction data alone, and provided tools to exploit this theory.
A theory of the origin of the Solar System is described which involves the capture of material from a light diffuse star which passed close to the Sun. It is shown that planetary condensations could be formed and that these would take up orbits with radii having the required range of values.
