چکیده

In the following, isomorphism of an arbitrary finite group of symmetry, non-crystallographic symmetry (quaternion groups, Pauli matrices groups, and other abstract subgroups), in addition to the permutation group, are considered. Application of finite groups of permutations to the packing space determines space tilings by policubes (polyominoes) and forms a structure. Such an approach establishes the computer design of abstract groups of symmetry. Every finite discrete model of the real structure is an element of symmetry groups, including non-crystallographic ones. The set packing spaces of the same order N characterizes discrete deformation transformations of the structure.

Log-Normal and Mono-Sized Particles’ Packing into a Bounded Region

Many systems can be modeled with hard and various size spheres, therefore packing and geometrical structures of such sets are of great importance. In this paper, rigid spherical particles distributed in different sizes are randomly packed in confined spaces, using a parallel algorithm. Mersenne Twister algorithm was used to generate pseudorandom numbers for initial coordination of particles. Di...

Collision-free configuration-spaces in macromolecular crystals

Molecular replacement (MR) is a well-established computational method for phasing in macromolecular crystallography. In MR searches, spaces of motions are explored for determining the appropriate placement of rigid single-body (or articulated multi-rigid-body) models of macromolecules in crystallographic asymmetric units. This paper investigates which portion of the motion space is physically r...

Packing of Helices: Is Chirality the Highest Crystallographic Symmetry?

Chiral structures resulting from the packing of helices are common in biological and synthetic materials. Herein, we analyze the noncentrosymmetry (NCS) in such systems using crystallographic considerations. A comparison of the chiral structures built from helices shows that the chirality can be expected for specific building units such as 31/32 or 61/65 helices which, in hexagonal arrangement,...

(2,3,5,10,12,13,15,20-Octa­phenyl­porphinato)copper(II) 1,1,2,2-tetra­chloro­ethane solvate

The title complex, [Cu(C(68)H(44)N(4))]·C(2)H(2)Cl(4), exhibits nearly square-planar geometry around the Cu(II) centre and the macrocyclic ring is almost planar. The porphyrin mol-ecule has an approximate non-crystallographic inversion centre (C(i)), and a non-crystallographic twofold rotation axis (C(2)) within the Cu(II)-porphyrin ring plane. Further, it has non-crystallographic twofold rotat...

Crystal structure of ethyl 2-[2-((1E)-{(1E)-2-[2-(2-eth­oxy-2-oxoeth­oxy)benzyl­idene]hydrazin-1-yl­idene}meth­yl)phen­oxy]acetate

The complete mol-ecule of the title compound, C22H24N2O6, is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry and is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation of the non-H atoms = 0.134 Å). The packing consists of inter-digitated sheets inclined at 25.9 (4)° to one another and linked by short C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
