Crystal Structures of Early Transition Metals

The crystalline structures and lattice parameters of the early transition metals are shown in Table 3.2. 

Note Lattice parameters, expressed in nm, are shown in brackets  

The metals of Group FV have two structures, a low-temperature one (a) which is hep and a high-temperature one (P) which is bcc. Those of Group V and VI (with the exception of chromium) have only one structure.
