_space_group_magn.transform_BNS_Pp

Name:
_space_group_magn.transform_BNS_Pp

Definition:

   
     This item specifies the transformation matrix Pp of the
     basis vectors and origin of the current setting to those
     of the Belov-Neronova-Smirnova setting presented in the
     ISO-MAG tables. The basis vectors (a',b',c') of the BNS
     setting are obtained as
 
     (a',b',c',1) = Pp (a,b,c,1) 

     where (a,b,c) are the current basis vectors.
