Acta Crystallographica is a series of peer-reviewed scientific journals, with articles centred on crystallography, published by the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr). Originally established in 1948 as a single journal called Acta Crystallographica,[1] there are now six independent Acta Crystallographica titles:
- Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances
- Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials
- Acta Crystallographica Section C: Structural Chemistry
- Acta Crystallographica Section D: Structural Biology
- Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications
- Acta Crystallographica Section F: Structural Biology Communications
Acta Crystallographica has been noted for the high quality of the papers that it produces,[2] as well as the large impact that its papers have had on the field of crystallography.[3] The current six journals form part of the journal portfolio of the IUCr, which is completed by the Journal of Applied Crystallography, the Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, the open-access IUCrJ and the open-access data publication IUCr Data.[4]
