Modulated structures dictionary (msCIF) version 3.2.1
_diffrn_refln.index_m_list
Name:_diffrn_refln.index_m_list
Definition:
Additional Miller indices needed to write the reciprocal vector
of a certain reflection in the basis described in
_cell_reciprocal_basis_description. Following the usual
convention, such a vector would be expressed as
H=h*a*+k*b*+l*c*+m1*q(1)+...+m8*q(8),
where h,k,l are the usual _diffrn_refln.index_, and q(1)...q(8)
represent the independent wave vectors given by
_cell_wave_vector.xyz and identified by _cell_wave_vector.seq_id.
Therefore, the total number of indices of a given reflection must
match (_cell.modulation_dimension + 3) and the order of the
additional indices must be consistent with the codes given in
_cell_wave_vector.seq_id. These indices need not match
_refln.index_m_list values if a transformation of the original
measured cell has occurred.
Type: Integer
Values appear in List context.
Dimension: []
Evaluation method:
With r as diffrn_refln
temp.index_m_list =
[ r.index_m_1, r.index_m_2, r.index_m_3, r.index_m_4,
r.index_m_5, r.index_m_6, r.index_m_7, r.index_m_8 ]
#Not meaningful indices are removed here
diffrn_refln.index_m_list =
temp.index_m_list[0:_cell.modulation_dimension – 1]
