Using an effective genetic algorithm, we uncover the structure of a metastable Al41Sm5 phase that supplements its family sharing similar short-range orders. The phase evolves upon heating an amorphous Al-9.7at.%Sm ribbon, produced by melt-spinning. The dynamical phase selection is discussed with respect to the structural connections between the short-range packing motifs in the amorphous precursor and those observed in the selected phases. This dataset includes information such as the crystal structure of Al41Sm5, the short-range packing motifs, experimental and calculated XRD, formation energy of stable and meta-stable phases in the Al-Sm system.
