Transition from FCC/HCP to SC. Cut-through views of a–f typical configurations of SPs of cubes with different asphericity α = 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 as obtained from simulations. The dark blue cubes have FCC/HCP order and the cyan particles have cubic order. The green cubes are not crystalline. g The fraction of crystalline cubes that is in an environment with cubic symmetry (cyan) and the fraction of crystalline cubes that is in an environment with FCC/HCP symmetry (dark blue) as a function of α
