- (Byström, 1950) gives the structure in the $I2/c$ setting of space group #15. We have used FINDSYM to change this to the standard $C2/c$ setting. This conversion involved a rotation of the axis, and placed the origin on what had been an Ag (4d) site, transforming it to Ag (4a).
\[ \begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{a_{1}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}- \frac{1}{2}b \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{2}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{1}{2}b \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{3}}&=&c \cos{\beta} \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+c \sin{\beta} \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}
