On the growth of crystals cut into the shape of spheres

Abstract

When studying certain physical properties of crystals, it is often advantageous to operate with crystals turned into spheres, since in this case we directly obtain the specific magnitude of change for each vector. However, as far as I know, no experiments have ever been made on the crystallization of spheres artificially prepared from a crystal of a given solid substance. Meanwhile, this form of crystal is important in the sense of reducing the influence of crystal planes on the crystallization currents that arise during the deposition of a substance from a solution.
