The space groups of point group C₃: some corrections, some comments

R. E. Marsh

Abstract: A survey of the October 2001 release of the Cambridge Structural Database [Cambridge Structural Database (1992). Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre, 12 Union Road, Cambridge, England] has uncovered approximately 675 separate apparently reliable entries under space groups , , and ; in approximately 100 of these entries, the space-group assignment appears to be incorrect. Other features of these space groups are also discussed.

Keywords: Cambridge Structural Database; space-group assignment; space-group revision.
