I need a reference for an explicit proof of the rationality of the Fano 3-fold $X_{18}$. By explicit I mean by a sequence of explicit birational transformations.

Thank you!

  • $\begingroup$ Have you looked into Iskovskikh classification paper? I think he uses the double projection from a line to relate this threefold to something simpler. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ it makes sense to start with this springer.com/us/book/9783540614685 book, you will find there a reference (and probably also a construction). $\endgroup$
