Hi Elisabetta

Your unit cell is pseudo F222, with twin law (-h,-k,h+k+l):

iotbx.explore_metric_symmetry --unit_cell="47.75    33.61    91.04
90.000 103.635  90.000" --space_group=C2

(output below)

Did you rule out twinning?
Try runing phenix.xtriage for some intensity stats and/or
phenix.refine for lsq twin refinement  and see where the twin fraction
goes.

Contact me personally if you need help or if you are not sure how to run things.

Peter

Symmetry of Niggli cell:  F 2 2 2 (x-y+z,x+y+z,2*z)


All pointgroups that are both a subgroup of the lattice symmetry and
a supergroup of the Niggli transformed input symmetry wil now be listed,
as well as their minimal supergroups/maximal subgroups and symmetry
operators that generate them.
For each pointgroup, a list of compatible spacegroups will be listed.
Care is taken that there are no sysmetatic absence violation with the
provided input spacegroup.

Point group   F 2 2 2 (x-y+z,x+y+z,2*z)   is a maximal subgroup of :
  * None

Point group   C 1 2 1 (x+y,-x+y+z,z)   is a maximal subgroup of :
