The material described by Y3Ag3Ga8 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. There are two inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ga(2) and eight equivalent Ga(1) atoms to form distorted YGa12 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent Ag(2)Y4Ga4Ag4 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent Y(1)Ga12 cuboctahedra. In the second Y site, Y(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ag(1), two equivalent Ag(2), four equivalent Ga(1), and six equivalent Ga(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ag sites. In the first Ag site, Ag(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y(2), two equivalent Ag(2), two equivalent Ga(1), and four equivalent Ga(2) atoms. In the second Ag site, Ag(2) is bonded to four equivalent Y(2), four equivalent Ag(1), and four equivalent Ga(2) atoms to form AgY4Ga4Ag4 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent Y(1)Ga12 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent Ag(2)Y4Ga4Ag4 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y(1), two equivalent Y(2), one Ag(1), one Ga(1), and three equivalent Ga(2) atoms. In the second Ga site, Ga(2) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Y(1), three equivalent Y(2), one Ag(2), two equivalent Ag(1), and three equivalent Ga(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
