_atom_site_Fourier_wave_vector.q1_coeff

Name:
_atom_site_Fourier_wave_vector.q1_coeff

Alias:
_atom_site_Fourier_wave_vector_q1_coeff

Definition:

   
    For a given incommensurate modulation that contributes to the
    structure, the wave vector of the modulation can be expressed as an
    integer linear combination of the d independent wave vectors that
    define the (3+d)-dimensional superspace.  The q1_coeff tag holds the
    integer coefficient of the contribution of the first independent wave
    vector, the q2_coeff tag holds the integer coefficient of the
    contribution of the second independent wave vector, and so on.  At the
    time of this writing, no examples with more than three independent
    wave vectors are known, though there is no theoretical limit to the
    number that could occur.  These tags are not explicitly magnetic; they
    are equally applicable to any incommensurate modulation.

Type: Integer

Evaluation method:

    with a as atom_site_Fourier_wave_vector
    a.q1_coeff = a.q_coeff[0]
