Symmetry operations
The crystalline medium is periodic and as a result of this periodicity, the
rotations of spatial symmetry operations cannot be of any value.
PERMITTED ROTATIONS both in the internal order of the crystals and
in their external form, are restricted to angles of 60, 90 or multiples of
them.

HERMANN-MAUGUIN notation
• If there is a 3 in the first place of the symbolic notation of a point group, this
group belongs to the trigonal system
• If there is a 3 in the second place of the symbolic notation of a point group, this
group belongs to the cubic system

BRAVAIS LATTICES
• In two-dimensional space there are only five possible ways to fill the space
with identical parallelograms and without leaving gaps. They are the oblique,
rectangular, rhombic, square and hexagonal lattices.
• In the three-dimensional space there are fourteen crystal lattices that fill the
space and that can be derived by stacking flat lattices in such a way that
certain elements of symmetry are preserved.

CRYSTAL SYSTEMS
If point groups are grouped by common symmetry, one can find a series of
groups that all have a single binary axis, or a single ternary axis, or a single
quaternary axis… If one starts from the minimum symmetry, for example a single
quaternary axis, one can propose a deductive scheme that allows one to reach
the rest of groups with identical symmetrical characteristics.

The symbols for space groups consist of a capital italic letter indicating the

including also helicoidal axes and glide planes

SPACE GROUPS
The symbols of the space groups give us information about the crystal
system and the point group. This is obtained by transforming the
translational elements by the equivalents without translation
