      Data items in the ATOM_SITES_ORTHO category record
      details about the orthogonalized functions defined to solve 
      correlation problems during the refinement of the modulation 
      parameters when the atomic domain of a given atom is restricted 
      by a Crenel function (see Petricek et al., 2016). 
      The functions are constructed selecting Fourier harmonics 
      until a desired degree of orthogonality and completeness is 
      reached (see_atom_site_occ_special_func.crenel_ortho_eps).
