Proving Bravais Lattice Volume?!?
Hi guys,
So with a Bravais lattice, you have 3 basis vectors: a1, a2, and a3.
I know that you would get the volume of the lattice as a scalar product of the three: V = a1 dot [a2 x a3].
How would you start going about PROVING this? A little direction to start would be helpful.
Thanks!
