Abstract

The article comments on the paper "Metallic Phase With long-Range Orientational Order and No Translational Symmetry," by D. Shechtman and coworkers. The paper discusses two basic principles of crystallography. It identifies sharp spots arrayed on a reciprocal lattice due to diffraction from periodic objects. The contributions of fluctations to the background diffuse intensity are noted.
