- (Adolphe, 1965) gives the lattice parameters for the ternary versions of this structure, but not the atomic positions. Presumably the third atom species replaces the atom on the (1a) or (1c) site.
\[ \begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{a_{1}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}- \frac{1}{2}b \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{2}}&=&\frac{1}{2}a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+\frac{1}{2}b \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{3}}&=&c \cos{\beta} \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}+c \sin{\beta} \,\mathbf{\hat{z}}
\end{array}\]
