Hi Eleanor H3 #143 is (and always has been) a triply-primitive cell setting of P3. http://img.chem.ucl.ac.uk/sgp/large/143bz1.htm Cheers -- Ian On Wed, 22 Jul 2020 at 14:42, Eleanor Dodson < 176a9d5ebad7-dmarc-requ...@jiscmail.ac.uk> wrote: > But surely P3 symmetry ' cell ( a,a,c 90 90

But surely P3 symmetry ' cell ( a,a,c 90 90 120) with origin shifts (⅓,⅔,0), +(⅔,⅓,0) can just be indexed as P3 with cell (a/sqrt(3), a/sqrt(3), c, 90 90 120) ?? Eleanor On Wed, 22 Jul 2020 at 14:32, Nicholas Keep wrote: > I have an answer from Jeremy Cockcroft the author of the 'Birkbeck' >

This is precisely why SHELX always used the coordinates of the general position (LATT+SYMM) to define the space group rather than a name or number. George On 22/07/20 14:15, Ian Tickle wrote: Hi David The problem is that the PDB incorrectly used the H lattice symbol (without consulting any

Hi David The problem is that the PDB incorrectly used the H lattice symbol (without consulting any crystallographers AFAIK) for the hexagonal R-centred cell when it had already been in use for many years for the triply-primitive setting of P3, so now we have this confusion between MX & XRD/powder

This does seem confusing! Maybe the International tables have changed, but in my copy spacegroup 143 is labelled P3 Spacegroup 146 is equivalent to P3 with translations 1/3,2/3.2/3 and 2/3,1/3,1/3 is called rhombehedral This can be indexed with. "a=b=c in the rhombehedral setting" and labelled
