An additional chloride anion is present in the center of the cell; it contributes all of itself to the cell, i.e., ONE.
This is exactly how Avogadro's number was first evaluated in 1912, using X-ray data to obtain volume of the unit cell, density to find the volume of one mole, and a knowledge of the contents of the unit cell to determine the net number of ions (or atoms, or molecules) present in the unit cell.
Chloride anions are located at all corners of the unit cell, and also all face-centers; they are in contact along the face diagonal.

 The NIH Catalyst Article on the NIH Stem Cell Unit [Stem Cell Information]
Within a year, the unit expects to produce a body of knowledge that will define and enhance the usefulness of most of the human ES cell lines that can be studied with federal funds.
The scope of the unit's budget and research is overseen by a steering committee comprised of leading intramural and extramural stem cell biologists.
Because the cells were extracted after the August 9, 2001, cutoff date for human ES cells that may be studied with federal funds, the Harvard group used private funds and facilities for their work—something that must also be done by any investigators seeking to use these new cell lines for their own stem cell research.

Normally, the unit cell translations are selected so that there is one unit cell for each lattice point (i.e., for an infinite lattice, the number of unit cells equals the number of lattice points).
Unit cell translations and the axes of crystal coordinate systems are labeled a, b, and c.
The angles between unit cell translations are identified by the Greek letter corresponding to the name of the opposite (i.e., perpendicular) translation.

 05w5073 Computational Fuel Cell Dynamics-III
We consider the heart of the fuel cell modeling effort to be the development of an accurate computational unit cell model, capable of robustly describing the operation over a wide range of conditions.
As of the writing of this proposal, most macroscopic unit cell models in the literature are limited to steady state operation and use fitted models of membrane, electrode and catalyst layer transport.
The state of macroscopic unit cell models, major improvements and continued weaknesses, will be one of the main subjects of discussion outside of the scheduled lectures.

 A Coupled Approach to Predict Microscopic Temperature Distribution Inside a Unit Cell of Nonisothermal Laminar Flow in ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
A method to compute the microscopic temperature distribution inside a unit cell for a laminar flow of an incompressible fluid in periodic porous media is presented in this paper.
Previous approaches have only exploited the similarity of the periodic unit cells to assume the microscopic unit cell problem regardless of its comformity with the macroscopic energy balance.
This inverse unit cell approach makes it possible to evaluate the influence of the heat capacity ratio of the fluid and the solid which was not possible to study with previous numerical unit cell approaches.
