  2. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    The S 2 group is the same as the C i group in the nonaxial groups section. S n groups with an odd value of n are identical to C nh groups of same n and are therefore not considered here (in particular, S 1 is identical to C s). The S 8 table reflects the 2007 discovery of errors in older references. [4] Specifically, (R x, R y) transform not as ...

  3. List of space groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_space_groups

    For example, 4 1 /a means that the crystallographic axis in question contains both a 4 1 screw axis as well as a glide plane along a. In Schoenflies notation, the symbol of a space group is represented by the symbol of corresponding point group with additional superscript. The superscript doesn't give any additional information about symmetry ...

  4. Crystallographic point group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_point_group

    For example, the point groups 1, 2, and m contain different geometric symmetry operations, (inversion, rotation, and reflection, respectively) but all share the structure of the cyclic group C 2. All isomorphic groups are of the same order, but not all groups of the same order are isomorphic.

  5. Character table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_table

    The entries consist of characters, the traces of the matrices representing group elements of the column's class in the given row's group representation. In chemistry, crystallography, and spectroscopy, character tables of point groups are used to classify e.g. molecular vibrations according to their symmetry, and to predict whether a transition ...

  6. Molecular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_symmetry

    Flowchart for determining the point group of a molecule. The successive application (or composition) of one or more symmetry operations of a molecule has an effect equivalent to that of some single symmetry operation of the molecule. For example, a C 2 rotation followed by a σ v reflection is seen to be a σ v ' symmetry operation: σ v *C 2 ...

  7. Crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_system

    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 crystallographic point groups that exist in three dimensions, most are assigned to only one lattice system, in which case both the crystal and lattice systems have the same name. However ...

  8. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system

    The isometric crystal system class names, point groups (in Schönflies notation, Hermann–Mauguin notation, orbifold, and Coxeter notation), type, examples, international tables for crystallography space group number, [2] and space groups are listed in the table below. There are a total 36 cubic space groups.

  9. List of spherical symmetry groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spherical_symmetry...

    This article lists the groups by Schoenflies notation, Coxeter notation, [1] orbifold notation, [2] and order. John Conway uses a variation of the Schoenflies notation, based on the groups' quaternion algebraic structure, labeled by one or two upper case letters, and whole number subscripts.
