This document discusses point groups and space groups in 3D crystallography. It introduces new symmetry operations in 3D like inversion centers and roto-inversions. There are a total of 32 point groups which are classified based on their symmetry elements like rotation axes, mirrors, and improper rotations. Space groups are derived by combining the 14 3D Bravais lattices with the point groups, resulting in 230 unique space groups. The key symmetry elements in 3D space groups include glide planes and screw axes, which involve translations in addition to rotations or reflections. Deriving all possible space groups from group theoretical considerations was an accomplishment of Barlow, Federov and Schoenflies in the late 19th century.
