_atom_site_rotation.spherical_azimuthal

Name:
_atom_site_rotation.spherical_azimuthal

Alias:
_atom_site_rotation_spherical_azimuthal

Definition:

   
     The azimuthal angle of the atom-site rotation vector
     specified in spherical coordinates relative to a set of
     orthogonal Cartesian axes where x||a and z||c* with y completing
     a right-hand set.  The azimuthal angle is a right-handed rotation
     around the +z axis starting from the +x side of the x-z plane.

Type: Real

Units: radians


The permitted range is 0.0 → 6.2831854
