Abstract
A formalism developed previously to calculate rotational correlation functions for models involving instantaneous reorientational jumps around fixed axes is extended to models permitting reorientations around both fixed (crystallographic) axes and mobile (molecular) axes. In the most general case, it is shown that the two kinds of reorientation do not play a symmetrical role.Keywords
