What does it mean to assign group operations to distinct sets for space groups?

Physics Asked by B. Brekke on December 3, 2020

I am trying to understand space groups in crystallography. In Internation tables for crystallography, for a nonsymmorphic space group, they list some symmetry operations. 8 of them are listed under the (0,0,0)+ set and 8 in the (1/2, 1/2, 1/2)+ set. What does this mean? Are there 16 operations in total? How do the sets differ?
