Hi Eleanor, Hi All, As suggested by Andrew (thanks!), I've switched off the NCS in Phaser and this gave a solution in C2 (a=66.2 b=83.9 c=66.2 90 98.7 90) that refines much better than the others (R=0.32/0.39). Still, I am not 100% convinced this is the correct cell/spacegroup... but it's a good starting point to continue the investigation. Thanks to all for your help !
