Item _space_group.IT_number


Description 

              The number as assigned in International Tables for
               Crystallography Vol A, specifying the proper affine class (i.e.
               the orientation preserving affine class) of space groups
               (crystallographic space group type) to which the space group
               belongs.  This number defines the space group type but not
               the coordinate system in which it is expressed.
