The k-vector types for the space groups [Im\bar{3}] and [Ia\bar{3}]

Comparison of the k-vector labels and parameters of CDML with the Wyckoff positions of IT A for [Fm\bar{3}] [(T_{h}^{3})], isomorphic to the reciprocal-space group [{\cal G}^*] of [m\bar{3}I]. The parameter ranges in [Fm\bar{3}] are obtained by extending those of [Fm\bar{3} m] such that each star of k is represented exactly once. The k-vector types of [(Fm\bar{3}m)^*], see Table 1.5.5.1[link], are also listed. The sign ∼ means symmetrically equivalent. Lines in parentheses are not special lines but belong to special planes. As in Table 1.5.5.1[link], the coordinates x, y, z of IT A are related to the k-vector coefficients of CDML by [x = 1/2(k_{2} + k_{3})], [y = 1/2(k_{1} + k_{3})], [z = 1/2(k_{1} + k_{2})].
