Abstract
In this chapter we consider the magnetic symmetry point groups, which are obtained by extending the classical point symmetry groups using the time-reversal operator \(\mathbf {T}\). In this case, the operator \(\mathbf {T}\) is not an element of the extended symmetry group, but it is contained in the group as a product of elements of the original point group.
