_atom_site_U_Fourier_atom_site_label

Name

Category: atom_site_U_Fourier

Data type: char

Must appear in a looped list containing '_atom_site_U_Fourier_id'
Must match a value of '_atom_site_label'

Definition

    	
   Modulation parameters are usually looped in separate lists.
   Modulated parameters are the atomic positions (displacive
   modulation), the atomic occupation (occupational modulation)
   and/or the atomic anisotropic (or isotropic) displacement
   parameters (referred to as modulation of thermal parameters since
   the term 'displacement parameters' is ambiguous in this context).
   _atom_site_U_Fourier_atom_site_label is the code that identifies
   an atom in a loop where the Fourier components of its thermal
   parameters modulation are being listed.  This code must match the
   _atom_site_label of the associated coordinate list and conform
   to the rules described in _atom_site_label.
