Determination of near-coincident cells for hexagonal crystals. Related DSC lattices

Crystallographic data concerning geometric properties of hexagonal lattices of C_α, Zn, Be_α, Ti_α, Zr_α, Mg and Cd are obtained from two different computation techniques. These properties are related to the relative orientations of identical hexagonal lattices 1 and 2 which superimpose two multiple cells M1 and M2 within a given small deformation. These orientations are listed for ratios Σ = | volume of cells M1 (or M2)/volume of the unit cell | varying from 1 to 25. Their number are limited by choosing all the principal strains transforming M1 into M2 less than or equal to 1%.
