So, it is OK, if you really use a supercell.<br><br>And this is very likely as according to http://cst-www.nrl.navy.mil/lattice/struk/aO2.html alpha-O2 is a base-centered monoclinic lattice with 2 atoms in the unit cell, but you used simple monoclinic with 4 atoms, that is why you got such kind message.<br><br>Bests,<br>Eyvaz.<br><br>-------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
