Space Group Properties and Notation

This table lists the space group notations used throughout the Encyclopedia. In general, we use the first space group orientation listed in the International Tables for Crystallography. There are several exceptions:

  • Some centrosymmetric space groups, e.g. $Fm\overline{3}m$ #227, have two settings, reflecting a choice of origin. We always take the second setting, which places the origin of the real-space coordinate system at an inversion site. This is denoted as setting 2.
  • For rhombohedral unit cells we always use the label for the full hexagonal unit cell (H) rather than the primitive rhombohedral cell (R), which follows our choice to describe the unit cell in terms of the hexagonal lattice parameters $a$ and $c$, rather than the rhombohedral lattice parameters $a$ and $\alpha$. (Setting H)
  • Monoclinic cells are always represented using the “unique axis $b$, ” i.e. the $b$ axis is perpendicular to both the $a$ and the $c$ axes, and those two axes are not orthogonal to one another. (Setting b)

Over the year multiple methods have been devised to label space groups. We include some of the most common.

  • The space group number, as listed in the International Tables
  • Hermann-Mauguin: (Hermann, 1928) and ( Mauguin, 1931), as updated by (de Wolff, 1992)
  • Hall: (Hall, 1981)
  • International: a compact form of the Hermann-Mauguin notation used in the International Tables of Crystallography (Brock, 2016)
  • Schoenflies: (Schoenflies, 1891) and (Schoenflies, 1923). Unlike the previous three notations, the label here remains the same regardless of the orientation of the crystal.

Class classifies each space group by its chirality and the presence or lack of an inversion site:

  • Centrosymmetric space groups are achiral, and have an inversion site. Because of this, any structure appearing in one of these space groups is achiral.
  • Achiral space groups (not the best name) are achiral, lack an inversion site, and include mirror operations so that they do not support chiral structures.
  • Sohncke II space groups are themselves chiral. They are paired, with a space group with a screw axis of the form $n_{m}$ having an enantiomorphic twin with a $n_{n-m}$ axis.
  • Sohncke III space groups are themselves achiral, but have no mirror or mirror-like operations and so support chiral structures.

The Other column contains other information about the groups:

  • Polar space groups have at least one axis where the origin is not fixed by symmetry. This automatically excludes centrosymmetric and cubic space groups.
  • Space groups with a Screw Axis can be rotated along an axis and translated along the same axis without changing the crystal structure. Centrosymmetric, chiral, achiral, polar and cubic space groups may have screw axes. Monoclinic space groups can have zero, one, two, or three screw axes, while higher symmetry space groups are limited to one.
