Was Bragg's Law only for physics?
While my initial work and Bragg's Law were rooted in physics and the study of crystals, its implications have extended far beyond. The ability to determine atomic and molecular structures opened new avenues in many scientific disciplines. For instance, understanding the precise arrangement of atoms in complex organic molecules is crucial for fields like chemistry and biology. The structure, you see, dictates the function, and knowing the structure allows us to understand how molecules behave and interact, even those found within living organisms. It highlights the interconnectedness of scientific principles.
