On the allowed values for the triclinic unit-cell angles

Acta Crystallogr A. 2011 Jan;67(Pt 1):93-5. doi: 10.1107/S0108767310044296. Epub 2010 Nov 25.

Abstract

This short article questions and investigates the possible range of values for the three angles of a unit cell in the triclinic system. Although no constraints are reported in manuals and tables for crystallography, the three angles are not really independent; the range of allowed values is calculated and presented in this paper.
