groups, point groups, lattices, unit cells, lattices planes, Miller indices,
forms, zones, zone axes, stereographic projections, metric tensor and
crystallographic calculations, subgroups, group – subgroup relations, change
of basis from group to subgroup,symmetry operations with a glide component,

serial diffraction conditions, indexing of ED patterns, calculation and
simulation of SAED pattern for a given compound, reconstruction of the unit
cell from SAED along different zone axes, analysis of CBED pattern,
differences between the symmetry information from SAED and CBED,
determination of point groups and space group from ED patterns, domains,
effect of twinning, twin index, unit cell of the twin lattice, determination
of space groups from ED patterns;
