MagSymmetryResult
find_spin_group(...) returns a MagSymmetryResult object. The object contains
the full analysis result, generated artifacts, and diagnostics.
Recommended Accessors
to_summary_dict()
Returns a compact dictionary with the most useful human-facing fields.
Main contents:
index
Identified OSSG index.
conf
Magnetic configuration class.
phase
Magnetic phase classification.
acc
Arithmetic crystal class.
properties
Physical-property summary.
gspg
Compact GSPG summary and text payload.
polar_axes_by_symmetry
Polar-axis information inferred by symmetry.
ferroelectric_switching
Symmetry-only ferroelectric switching payload.
to_structured_dict()
Returns the full result grouped by semantic layer. This is the preferred full output for new integrations.
Top-level groups:
summary
Identifiers, phase, tolerances, and source metadata.
groups
Input SG, G0, L0, spin point group, GSPG, OSSG, MSG, SSG-by-cell, MSG-by-cell,
and little-group payloads.
cells
Input, input magnetic primitive, database standard, convention, ACC primitive,
and ACC conventional cells.
transforms
Setting transforms and route audits.
properties
Magnetic phase, spin splitting, AHC, tensors, magnetic-site summary, quasi-2D,
polar-axis, and ferroelectric-switching outputs.
artifacts
Generated POSCAR, SCIF, and KPOINTS text.
legacy
Raw attribute dictionary for compatibility with older callers.
to_scif(cell_mode=...)
Returns generated SCIF text for the requested cell mode. See SCIF Export.
to_dict()
Returns the raw attribute dictionary. This is useful for compatibility and
debugging, but it is not the recommended starting point for new integrations.
Prefer to_summary_dict() or to_structured_dict().
Common Direct Attributes
index
Final identified OSSG index.
convention_ssg_international_linear
Public convention OSSG symbol.
magnetic_phase
High-level magnetic phase label.
msg_symbol, msg_bns_number, msg_og_number
Corresponding MSG identifiers.
acc
Arithmetic crystal class.
scif
Default SCIF text.
scif_outputs
SCIF text keyed by cell mode.
acc_primitive_magnetic_cell_poscar
Generated POSCAR text in ACC primitive setting.
KPOINTS
Generated KPOINTS text.
quasi_2d
Additive quasi-2D diagnostics when requested; otherwise None in ordinary 3D
mode.
