I didn't actually use these cif files for my simulations, I entered the data
by hand (including fractions where the software would take it). :-)
The cif data is just there for other people's convenience - different powder
software like different cif file formats anyhow. In any case, if
The cell is in space group P3112
There aren't even any structures with this space group in the ICSD
(not even the other enantiomorph P3212)
Hmm, I found 24 entries in ICSD for P3122, especially minerals such as
Muscovite 3T but also things like V6C5 and Ag2HPO4 but not Li3MnNiCoO6
Cenzual,

I agree - I found them as well, but this particular P3112/P3212 group is
very rare. Given that software tends to deal with space group
interpretation on a case-by-case basis it does mean that problems can be
specific to a particular group - especially if it hasn't been tested before.
Some
Pam,
I hope that when you used GSAS you entered (as per instructions) p 31 1
2 and not p3112.

I did indeed - I tried GSAS and it behaves itself.

Pam,
As a developer and someone who uses other software to test against, I
have been following the discussion with interest. This is a complex area
and it goes to show the importance of having a few programs if only for
testing purposes.
I am puzzled by your cif data however as I cant get past
AlanI'm afraid that the cif files weren't overly good
ones - I don't normally use them. For the R-3m the Li 1/2 fractional
coordinate is for the z, not y. The structures are related by a Ö3a x Ö3a relationship with Z = 3
for the R-3m and Z = 9 for the P3112.Here are the STR files. You can
Alan,
One of your operators is a typo.
-x+y, y, -z+1/3 should be Y-X Y 1/3-Z

out for "apparent" discrepencies.
