Magnetic structures (magCIF) version 0.9.8

_space_group_symop_magn_OG_centering.xyz

Name:
_space_group_symop_magn_OG_centering.xyz

Definition:

   
     A parsable string giving one of the centering operations of the
     OG(k)-supercell  description of a magnetic space group in
     algebraic form.  The form of such a string  is identical to that
     expected for _space_group_symop_operation.xyz, except that the
     rotational part of a translation must always be the identity
     element. The magnetic component of the centering vector is not
     given in the value of this tag, but should instead be separately
     established using the value of the
     _space_group_magn.OG_wavevector_kxkykz tag.

Example:

x+1/2,y+1/2,z a centering translation of (1/2,1/2,0)
