Figure 15
Examples of 2D RBS space groups adopting the same labels as the corresponding 2D space groups for space crystals. A unit cell is shown in each case by a gray rectangle. The faded purple circle at each lattice site is the same as the RBS circle in Fig. 9(b) for the case of
v = u. The blue arcs represent a series of events (an RBS spacetime flock of birds?) being observed in RBS coordinates as indicated by the axes . Dashed black lines are glide planes, solid black lines are mirrors, yellow lines are light lines, and the black ovals represent twofold rotation axes. |
