a The slip planes (A, C, D) and Burgers vectors (b1, ⋯, b6) in the SB notation. Note that the A, B, C, D labels in the SB notation do not match those in the Thompson tetrahedron notation. b A dislocation on slip system i=D6 involved in two glissile reactions with slip systems j=A3 and k=C1: D6+A3=A2 and D6+C1=D4. G refers to the type of the nodes. c The two glissile junctions A2 and C5 meet at the apex of the tetrahedron, forming a 4-arm node. This node is O-type. d The 4-arm node splits into two 3-arm nodes connected by a dislocation link on slip system D4. The node on the apex of the tetrahedron is connected to three 60∘ dislocations on slip systems A2, D4 and C5
