Abstract

Normalizers of space groups are extensively used in the solution of diverse tasks in structural crystallography. Yet, they are often considered an `esoteric' topic, seldom introduced in the education curriculum of a crystallographer. This paper presents a pedagogical introduction with special emphasis on their role in the equivalent description of crystal structures.
