Detailed Description

Calculates the geometric center of a given Composite object.

This processor calculates the geometric center of the atom coordinates of a given molecular object.

The geometric center is calculated as follows:

\[ {C} = {1}{N} {i}{N} {r_i} \] Where ${r_i}$ represents the coordinates of the ith atom.
