GTShellVectorsQlp[point group,shell vectors]
calculates the minimal set of vectors representing the coordination spheres.
Details and Options
- A cluster is reordered in shells by GTShells. The vectors
represent a minimal set
of vectors of the coordination sphere
such, that all vectors of the coordination sphere can be transformed in one of the
vectors by a point group operation. The sets are not unique.

Examples
Basic Examples (1)
The point group is considered.
A simple cubic structure is considered.
The list sccl is reordered in coordinaten spheres.
qv contains the vectors of shell
which are the minimum set to recalculate all vectors of the coordination sphere by point group operations. In case of the simple cubic lattice it is one vector per coordination sphere.
