The magnetic moment per site is:
     atom   1 (R=0.179)  charge=  1.5425  magn= -0.0000
     atom   2 (R=0.179)  charge=  3.4200  magn=  0.0003
     atom   3 (R=0.179)  charge=  3.3857  magn=  1.3175
     atom   4 (R=0.179)  charge=  3.3853  magn= -1.3178

and      total magnetization       =    -0.00 Bohr mag/cell
            absolute magnetization    =     3.43 Bohr mag/cell

The sum of the individual magnetic moment does not give the value equal to
that of absolute magnetization. Also the reported values of moments are
1.75 and -1.75. Why is there a difference between sum of moments and
absolute value? and why are the moments low?
