%N Decimal expansion of Madelung constant (negated) for zinc sulfide ZnS.

%C This constant is for sphalerite, the more common polymorph of zinc sulfide. - _Jon E. Schoenfield_, Mar 11 2018

%C The sphalerite (zincblende) structure consists of two interpenetrating face-centered cubic lattices of ions with charges +2 and -2, together occupying all sites of the diamond structure. This constant does not include overall factor 2 from the absolute value of the charges. This constant is normalized to the nearest neighbor distance, not the lattice constant; cf. the values 3.782926104 (or 3.78292610408577750878 from Sarkar & Bhattacharyya) and 7.56584 from pages 41 and 16 of "Lattice Sums Then and Now", which equal 4/sqrt(3) and 8/sqrt(3) times this constant. - _Andrey Zabolotskiy_, Feb 18 2021
