Resumo

SIR 88 is an integrated package of computer programs for the solution of crystal structures. The package is based on the estimation of one- and two-phase structure seminvariants and three- and four-phase structure invariants according to the theory of representations [Giacovazzo (1977). Acta Cryst. A 33 , 933–944; (1980). Acta Cryst. A 36 , 362–372]. The program works in all the space groups and in most cases it is able to provide the correct solution without user intervention. Some prior information like the availability of a partial structure or of pseudotranslational symmetry is easily exploited to obtain the structure solution.
