Dear Masaichi Warizaya,

whenever I get a trigonal space group, my alarm bell rings: watch out
for twinning! In your case, it could well be that the apparent space
group P3(1)12/P(3)12 could be indeed P3 with perfect merohedral twinning
and a 2-fold twin axis along a*+b*. Please, check your data for perfect
twinning on Todd Yeates's Twin Server (for instance).

Best regards,

Dirk.
