  • (Buerger, 1936) originally determined the positions of the manganese and oxygen atoms using the $B21/d$ setting of space group #14. This structure was given the Strukturbericht designation $E0_{6}$ in (Gottfried, 1938). Much later, (Kohler, 1997) found the positions of the hydrogen atoms, and presented the data in the standard $P2_{1}/c$ setting of space group #14.

Simple Monoclinic primitive vectors:
