Category ATOM_SITE_ROT_LEGENDRE

Name:
'ATOM_SITE_ROT_LEGENDRE'

Parent category:
MS_GROUP

Definition:

   

      Data items in the ATOM_SITE_ROT_LEGENDRE category record
      details about the Legendre polynomials used to describe the displacive 
      modulations when the atomic domain of a given atom is restricted 
      by a crenel function. In the case of rigid groups, items in this 
      category would only include the rotational part of the modulation. 
      The translational part would appear in a separate list of items 
      belonging to the ATOM_SITE_DISPLACE_LEGENDRE category. 

Category is of type Loop
