Following is the fact about the newly discovered superconductor of C_(60) (fullerene). The alkali metal fulleride superconductor M_(3)C_(60) has a cubic closest-packed (face-centered cubic) arragement of nearly spherical C_(60)^(3-) anions with M^(+) cations in the holes between the larger C_(60)^(3-) ions. The holes are of two types-octahedral holes, which are surrounded octahedrally by six C_(60)^(3-) ions, and tetrahedral holes, which are surrounded tetrahedrally by four C_(60)^(3-) ions. Specify fractional coordinates for the tetrahedral holes (Fractional coordinates are fractions of the unit cell edge lengths. For example, a hole at the centre of the cell has fractional coordinates (1)/(2),(1)/(2),(1)/(2)
