_function.SymEquiv
Name:_function.SymEquiv
Definition:
The function
xyz' = SymEquiv( symop, xyz )
returns a fractional coordinate vector xyz' which is input vector
xyz transformed by the input symop 'n_pqr' applied to the
symmetry-equivalent matrix extracted from the category SPACE_GROUP_SYMOP.
Type: Real
Values appear in Matrix context.
Dimension: [3]
Units: none
Evaluation method:
Function SymEquiv( c :[Single, Symop], # symop string n_pqr
x :[Matrix, Real] ){ # fract coordinate vector
s = space_group_symop [ SymKey( c ) ]
SymEquiv = s.R * x + s.T + SymLat( c )
}
