If the
other programs are in error at the hkl stage then my suggestion is to send the
hkls from the apparently working programs to the authors of the apparently not
working programs.
Or
better yet those authors should contact you as I for one am always on the look

In the original

I modified that file to be able to start refining the TM x

Hope others on the list dont consider this topic as spam but the

Pam,
I
looked at your INP file and there was a problem in regards to how atomic
coordinates were defined. As you know TOPAS uses computer algebra with a
tollerance of 1.0e-15 for checking the equivalence of equivalent positions. If I
use
x =
1/9; y = 5/9; etc,,,

Pam,
Actually you're right! WRT that operator - they are the same. My goof.

I worked through all of the various operators used in the programs I have
(including Topas) and they are equivalent in each case. Topas works for
this one just as well as GSAS.

One of your operators is a typo.
"-x+y, y, -z+1/3" should be " Y-X Y 1/3-Z"

I hope that when you used GSAS you entered (as per instructions) "p 31 1

I agree - I found them as well, but this particular P3112/P3212 group is
very rare. Given that software tends to deal with space group
interpretation on a case-by-case basis it does mean that problems can be
specific to a particular group - especially if it hasn't been tested before.
Some so

Hmm, I found 24 entries in ICSD for P3122, especially minerals such as
Muscovite 3T but also things like V6C5 and Ag2HPO4 but not Li3MnNiCoO6
