Name:_atom_site_rotation.symmform
Alias:
_atom_site_rotation_symmform
Definition:
A symbolic expression that indicates the symmetry-restricted form of the components of the rotation vector of the atom. Unlike the positional coordinates of an atom, its rotation has no translational component to be represented.Examples:
rx,ry,rz | no symmetry restrictions |
rx,-rx,0 | y component equal and opposite to x component with z component zero |
rx,0,rz | y component zero |
