Scientific papers of C.V. Raman: Volume V : physics of crystals

Abstract

Volume V of the Scientific Papers of C.V. Raman contains the papers published by Raman on various aspects of crystal dynamics. The volume also contains a new view of the theory of elasticity developed by Raman and Viswanathan in which the symmetries of the stress and strain tensors and the number of independent elastic constraints differed from the standard view.
