Abstract

A complete table of (3 + 1)D, (3 + 2)D and (3 + 3)D superspace groups (SSGs) has been enumerated that corrects omissions and duplicate entries in previous tables of superspace groups and Bravais classes. The theoretical methods employed are not new, though the implementation is both novel and robust. The paper also describes conventions for assigning a unique one-line symbol for each group in the table. Finally, a new online data repository is introduced that delivers more complete information about each SSG than has been presented previously.
