  • This structure was reinvestigated by (Enjalbert, 1986) and others because of [dissatisfaction with] some aspects of the crystal structure. They proposed a revised structure in space group $Pmmn$ #59. We list this structure here for the historical record.

\[ \begin{array}{ccc} \mathbf{a_{1}}&=&a \,\mathbf{\hat{x}}\\\mathbf{a_{2}}&=&b \,\mathbf{\hat{y}}\\\mathbf{a_{3}}&=&c \,\mathbf{\hat{z}} \end{array}\]
