Name:
'PARENT_PROPAGATION_VECTOR'

Parent category:
MAGNETIC

Definition:

   
     This looped category allows for the presentation of the
     fundamental magnetic wave vectors in the setting of the parent
     structure.  In general, there can be more than one fundamental
     magnetic wave vector. See the PARENT_SPACE_GROUP category for
     more information about parent space groups.
