Additional arguments passed to the calculate_cell_volume methods

Value

A positive numeric, the volume in reciprocal cubic angstroms of the reciprocal unit cell corresponding to the input.

Examples

# Create a monoclinic cell and the corresponding reciprocal
bt <- bravais("mP")
uc <- create_unit_cell(bt)
ruc <- create_rec_unit_cell(uc)

# Calculate reciprocall cell volume
calculate_cell_volume(ruc)
