Report of a Subcommittee on the Nomenclature of n-Dimensional Crystallography.: II.: Symbols for arithmetic crystal classes, Bravais classes and space groups

The Second Report of the Subcommittee on the Nomenclature of n-Dimensional Crystallography recommends specific symbols for R-irreducible groups in 4 and higher dimensions (nD), for centrings, for Bravais classes, for arithmetic crystal classes and for space groups (space-group types). The relation with higher-dimensional crystallographic groups used for the description of aperiodic crystals is briefly discussed. The Introduction discusses the general definitions used in the Report.
