Comments:

NSD
Position structure, including unit cell, from a model at room temperature retrieved from the ICSD, except for the Mn coordinates.
See #0.30 for another model at 1.5K with different MSG and where the Yb moments are not ordered.

Comments (symmetry):

1k magnetic structure
k-maximal magnetic symmetry
1-dim irrep as primary
