The latter means, that enantiomorphic point groups describe chiral (enantiomorphic) structures. In the current table, "enantiomorphic" means that a group itself (considered as a geometric object) is enantiomorphic, like enantiomorphic pairs of three-dimensional space groups P3 1 and P3 2, P4 1 22 and P4 3 22. Starting from four-dimensional ...
In mathematics, a rod group is a three-dimensional line group whose point group is one of the axial crystallographic point groups. This constraint means that the point group must be the symmetry of some three-dimensional lattice. Table of the 75 rod groups, organized by crystal system or lattice type, and by their point groups:
This is enantiomorphism, and the mirror images are said to be enantiomorphs of each other. The possibility of enantiomorphic crystals is determined by the crystal symmetry, i.e., by the point group of the crystal species. There are 32 possible point groups, and 22 of these are capable of forming enantiomorphs. [9]
In crystallography, a crystallographic point group is a three dimensional point group whose symmetry operations are compatible with a three dimensional crystallographic lattice. According to the crystallographic restriction it may only contain one-, two-, three-, four- and sixfold rotations or rotoinversions. This reduces the number of ...

The 54 hemisymmorphic space groups contain only axial combination of symmetry elements from the corresponding point groups. Example for point group 4/mmm (): hemisymmorphic space groups contain the axial combination 422, but at least one mirror plane m will be substituted with glide plane, for example P4/mcc (, 35h), P4/nbm (, 36h), P4/nnc ...
A crystal system is a set of point groups in which the point groups themselves and their corresponding space groups are assigned to a lattice system. Of the 32 point groups that exist in three dimensions, most are assigned to only one lattice system, in which case the crystal system and lattice system both have the same name.
The triclinic crystal system class names, examples, Schönflies notation, Hermann-Mauguin notation, point groups, International Tables for Crystallography space group number, [1] orbifold, type, and space groups are listed in the table below. There are a total of 2 space groups. #
