Acta Crystallogr A Found Adv. 2014 May;70(Pt 3):300-2. doi: 10.1107/S2053273314004495. Epub 2014 Mar 14.

Abstract

The aim of this report is to describe the Seitz notation for symmetry operations adopted by the Commission on Crystallographic Nomenclature as the standard convention for Seitz symbolism of the International Union of Crystallography. The established notation follows the existing crystallographic conventions in the descriptions of symmetry operations.

Keywords: Seitz notation; crystallographic groups; symmetry operations.
