Copy number. The hard "Vm >= 4: MULTI_COPY, no decision" rule is gone. Copies
are searched one after another up to the largest copy number with a Matthews
probability of 1% (a Gumbel distribution with Kantardjieff & Rupp's 2003 mode
and mean, no resolution dependence); COPIES_LIKELY reports the most probable.
Sequential search. Copy n's translation function carries copies 1..n-1 as a
known partial structure: the cross term 2 Re(conj(F_known) F(t)) goes on the
same FFT grid (CPU FFTW and GPU cuFFT; KnownStructureFactors, AssemblyCorrelation).
Its peaks, past those that clash, are ranked by the correlation of the whole
assembly with E^2 (the TF itself, linear in |F|^2, rewards copying a placed
copy onto an origin shift), the first that stands out (TF Z >= 8), packs and
lowers R-free by 0.01 is kept; each copy is refined beside the others held
fixed (RefineRigidBody's fixed copies), and the first copy again beside the
second, the earlier ones once more at the end.
Packing: ClashFraction counts C-alpha clashes with other copies and all their
mates, binned (7mzt: 51 s of clash checks -> 1.9 s).
Search quality: rotation-function peaks hill-climbed off the 6 deg sampling
(6ze4: RF Z 10.4 -> 16.0, 3.3 deg off the deposited orientation -> 0.2); the
first copy goes down the TF list until three placements that pack are
refined, so a group is CLASH only where no offered orientation packs; groups
are searched side by side, and every group the best one leads is searched
again with the best one's copy orientations tried first, the better search kept.
tNCS: the native Patterson of E^2 (5-10 A) off the lattice; placed copies'
orientations join every further copy's search; and where the tNCS vector turns
one group's screw axes into another's (TncsRelatesGroups), a group whose search
stopped at fewer copies does not lose to the other - UNDECIDED. Measured on an
in-house tNCS crystal (vector c/3 along the 3-fold): both hands fit with three
copies to within 0.01 in R-free, and where one hand's search failed the other
was taken as ENANTIOMORPH; now UNDECIDED.
Null: the replicates are placed by the translation function in their own
orientation, as the search placed the real one (a null at the real centroid
reads high), and the gate is 4.51 = t(8) sqrt(1 + 1/9), 3 sd of a nine-draw
null, the gate --model's MODEL_FIT is now read at.
Speed: placements scored on the GPU structure-factor engines; further copies'
trials score with the first copy's bulk solvent held, the assembly refitted at
the end. Survey of 193 sets (jfjoch_mr_replay on stored merges, RTX 5080
shared with other jobs): MR median 1.15 s, max 24 s; demos 0.8-1.1 s.
Report: COPIES and COPIES_LIKELY columns, MODEL_PRIOR_COPIES.

A developer utility, not installed: the search, the decision and the hand
check run on the answer's p.mtz (and the twin hypothesis' p_twin_<group>.mtz)
that a rugnux run wrote, so a survey of the search over every dataset with a
predicted model takes minutes instead of a reprocessing per set. The hand
check of an ENANTIOMORPH decision moves from the rugnux driver into
CheckEnantiomorphHand, which both call; unchanged.

gemmi's table lists some groups a second time on another origin ("P 42 21 2a", "P 21212(a)",
"I 2 2 2a", "C 1 21 1"). SameRotationGroups kept them as separate candidates, so the true group tied
with itself in R-free and the choice came out UNDECIDED: five single-copy sets of the --af-model
survey (and one partial-model set) ended there. A group equal to one already listed up to an origin
shift on the twelfths is now left out.

The ENANTIOMORPH hand check ran a whole ValidateAgainstModel on the placed model: model read and frame
probe, a rigid body, a 9-replicate null (~0.5 s of the ~0.6-0.9 s), sigma_A, three maps written. The
decision needs only --model's rule: the model fits its null (the MR choice has already required its
own null of the same construction) and the anomalous map at the model's atoms is not inverted.
ReadModelAnomalousMap (ModelValidation) computes F_calc and F_mask to the data's resolution (GPU engine
where there is one), carries them through the bulk solvent MR scored the placement with (the overall
scale and anisotropic B do not move phases), and reads the anomalous map with the same code as the
validation: its coefficient construction and its reading at the atoms are factored out of Validate
(anomalous_coefficients, read_anomalous_map) and used by both, so plain --model is unchanged.
Hand check 0.6/0.6/0.9 s -> 0.027/0.028/0.040 s on 11if/7ris/9zmu; same ADOPTED/VETOED on all seven
cases tried (the three demos, two anomalous lysozyme sets and their mirrored-detector runs), with the
scatterer means and deepest troughs within 0.1 sigma of the full validation's.

- An MR ENANTIOMORPH decision is taken into the answer's label only as --model takes a model's
enantiomorph: ValidateAgainstModel runs on the placed model (in a scratch directory, removed after)
and its adopted_model_enantiomorph - fit over its null, anomalous map at the atoms not inverted -
decides; otherwise ENANTIOMORPH_VETOED. The hand-check numbers go to the MODEL PRIOR section.
- Rotation and translation functions on the GPU (MolecularReplacementGPU.cu): one block per
orientation for the rotation function; per orientation the copies, the bin weights, a gather of the
Crowther-Blow coefficients (CSR lists, fixed order, no atomics) and a cuFFT C2R, block-reduced
statistics finished on the host in a fixed order. The CPU path (FFTW) is unchanged in what it
computes; the orientation-independent part of the translation function (TranslationSetup) is now
built once per group on either path.
- Rescoring: a placement clashing with its mates over twice the limit is not refined, one rigid-body
engine per group, and the null is built only for the candidate the choice falls on.
Measured MR step on the RTX 5080 (before -> after, seconds; hand check extra where it runs):
3r6o 1.77 -> 0.67, neg 2.14 -> 0.37, 11if 1.20 -> 0.51 (+0.6 hand check), 7ris 1.46 -> 0.56 (+0.6),
9zmu 4.71 -> 1.07 (+0.9). Rotation 0.50 -> 0.02 s and translation 1.17 -> 0.13 s on 9zmu.
Mirrored-detector runs of two anomalous lysozyme sets: the hand check vetoes (map inverted at the
model's atoms); the unmirrored runs adopt.

A predicted model (AlphaFold mmCIF, pLDDT in the B column) is trimmed at pLDDT 70, given B-factors
from the pLDDT (Oeffner et al. 2022) and placed by molecular replacement, one copy in the ASU:
- rotation function on a uniform 6 deg sampling of the point group's rotation ASU, each orientation
scored by the correlation of E^2 with the symmetry-summed |F|^2 read off the model's molecular
transform, computed once by FFT and interpolated (Navaza 1994);
- full-symmetry Crowther & Blow translation function (one FFT per orientation and group, through
MapFromFPhi/FFTW) for the 50 best orientations in every group with the merge's rotations;
- the best three placements per group through RefineRigidBody (GPU where there is one), bulk solvent
and R-free to 3 A, a C-alpha packing check against symmetry mates, Matthews, and the
random-orientation null for a placed candidate.
Decision: PLACED = TF Z >= 8, clash <= 5%, Vm in [1.5, 4), null >= 3 sd. Within the answer's merge
the placed group with the lowest R-free is chosen where it leads every other packing group by 0.03;
the twin hypothesis' merge is searched, and chosen, only where no group of the answer's merge can
hold the model at all (Matthews, packing). An enantiomorph relabels the answer as --model does;
another group goes to <prefix>_mr.mtz/.cif plus <prefix>_mr_model.pdb; the MODEL PRIOR report
section carries the table. The search runs on the CPU in both builds; without --af-model nothing
changes.
Measured (RTX 5080, MR step): 3r6o twin I41 chosen over I4122 (Matthews + clash) in 1.8 s, solution
0.09 A CA rmsd from Phaser's; 11if P41 -> P43 1.2 s; 7ris P3121 -> P3221 1.7 s; 9zmu P6122 -> P6522
4.7 s; 11if's model against 3r6o's data NOT_PLACED.
