Aug 25, 2021 · Abstract. 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.
