✦ Synopsis

Amongst the other physical properties, the structure of fullerene solids, and the structural transformations with temperature, pressure and doping have all evoked considerable interest and during the la~st two years tremendous progress has been made in this area. This paper provides a brief review of the studies on the structural properties of pristine and doped fullerenes. The results of our own investigations are 'also presented.
