  • This structure was found via first-principles calculations. The data presented here was computed at a pressure of 400 GPa. The authors (Zeng, 2017) do not provide a value for $\beta$, so it is assumed to be near 90°. Using exactly 90° results in space group #58, so we set $\beta=91^{\circ}$, yielding space group #10.

Simple Monoclinic primitive vectors:
