For why phases are important in crystallography, refer to:
Scanned image of the Physical Meaning of the Phase angle alpha(hkl) in Crystallography within
"X-Ray Analysis of Organic Structures", by Stanley C. Nyburg, pages 98-99, 1961, Academic Press. This
was the first crystallographic text book with such a graphical explanation using such a diagram.
