Description
The crystal structure of the elemental boron polymorph $\beta$-rhomohedral boron has been investigated by means of high-resolution X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation and samples of high purity. We will discuss the peculiar chemical bonding in this complex boron polymorph based on a multipolar refinement and the resulting electron density.
