_atom_site.U_equiv_geom_mean

Name:
'_atom_site.U_equiv_geom_mean'

Definition:

   Equivalent isotropic atomic displacement parameter, U~eq~,
   in angstroms squared, calculated as the geometric mean of
   the anisotropic atomic displacement parameters.

   U~eq~ = (U~i~ U~j~ U~k~)^1/3^

   U~n~ = the principal components of the orthogonalized U^ij^
