Robert P. Munafo, 1993 Mar 24.
Used to describe a mu-atom in reference to each of the smaller mu-atoms
that it binds to (touches):
The mu-atom is called the "parent" of all of the
smaller mu-atoms (which are called children).
All "circular" mu-atoms have parents, but the
"cardiod" shaped mu-atoms (called seeds) do not.
