Abstract

The mathematical structure, description and classification of magnetic space groups is briefly reviewed, with special emphasis on the recently proposed notation, the so-called UNI symbols [Campbell et al. (2022). Acta Cryst. A78, 99–106]. As illustrative examples, very simple magnetic space groups from each of the four possible types are described in detail.
