Calculation of relative twist between consecutive nucleosomes. The green lines lie on the bisecting planes of respective nucleosomes, and are orthogonal to the trajectory of the linker DNA. Consequently, their corresponding vectors are cross products between the linker trajectory and the normals to respective nucleosome discs (defined by their bisecting planes). The relative twist between the nucleosomes are given by the angle between the green lines.
