TL;DR: A new set of covalent atomic radii has been deduced from crystallographic data for most of the elements with atomic numbers up to 96 and shows a well behaved periodic dependence that allows us to interpolate a few radii for elements for which structural data is lacking.

Abstract: A new set of covalent atomic radii has been deduced from crystallographic data for most of the elements with atomic numbers up to 96. The proposed radii show a well behaved periodic dependence that allows us to interpolate a few radii for elements for which structural data is lacking, notably the noble gases. The proposed set of radii therefore fills most of the gaps and solves some inconsistencies in currently used covalent radii. The transition metal and lanthanide contractions as well as the differences in covalent atomic radii between low spin and high spin configurations in transition metals are illustrated by the proposed radii set.

The Cambridge Structural Database: a quarter of a million crystal structures and rising
TL;DR: The Cambridge Structural Database now contains data for more than a quarter of a million small-molecule crystal structures, and projections concerning future accession rates indicate that the CSD will contain at least 500,000 crystal structures by the year 2010.

Atomic Radii in Crystals
TL;DR: A set of empirical atomic radii has been set up, such that the sum of the radii of two atoms forming a bond in a crystal or molecule gives an approximate value of the internuclear distance.
