Example 2 - extracted from Baudour & Sanquer [(1983). Acta Cryst. B39, 75-84.] Note the entry from the ATOM_SITES_ROT_FOURIER category to describe collective information relating to all the atom sites. The meaning of _atom_site_rot_Fourier_param_id is given in the examples of the ATOM_SITE_ROT_FOURIER category.

Definition

    	
   Data items in the ATOM_SITE_ROT_FOURIER_PARAM category record 
   details about the coefficients of the Fourier series used to 
   describe the rotational component of the displacive modulation of
   a given rigid group. The translational part would appear in a
   separate list of items belonging to the
   ATOM_SITE_DISPLACE_FOURIER_PARAM category. The Fourier components
   are defined in the category ATOM_SITE_ROT_FOURIER and are listed 
   separately.
