Name:

Definition:

   
     A string that describes the source of a reference setting for the
     magnetic superspace group.
     If the reference source does not appear in the list below, use
     _space_group_magn_ssg_transforms.description

The data value must be one of the following:


ISO(3+d)D-MAG
This superspace transformation simultaneously takes the setting of the basic magnetic space group (BMSG) to the setting of the corresponding entry in the ISO-MAG tables, and takes the setting of the derived non-magnetic superspace group (DNMSG) to within a purely external operation of the setting of the corresponding entry in the ISO(3+d)D tables. The external components of this superspace transformation are those that take the setting of the BMSG to the setting of the corresponding entry in the ISO-MAG tables, while the internal components are those of the transformation that takes the setting of the DNMSG to the setting of the corresponding superspace group in the ISO(3+d)D tables. Such a transformation is unique for any setting of a magnetic superspace group.
