Item Description

The [2] element of the three-element vector used to transform fractional coordinates in the ATOM_SITE category to Cartesian coordinates in the same category. The axial alignments of this transformation are described in _atom_sites.Cartn_transform_axes. The rotation matrix is defined in _atom_sites.Cartn_transf_matrix[][]. |x'| |11 12 13| |x| |1| |y'|Cartesian = |21 22 23| |y|fractional + |2| |z'| |31 32 33| |z| |3|
