64–66.
Each coefficient of the space expansion is a PAIR of table entries combined with the tilt: entries 2i-1 and 2i (one-based) of aa give A_i, and so on. The parity tables say how: false (the report's selector value 1) pairs them as {1, t^2}, true (selector 2) as {t, t^3}, t being the dipole tilt in degrees. A/B share odd_x (the report's ITA), C/D share odd_y (ITB), E/F share odd_z (ITC).
Every value is the six-significant-figure decimal printed in the report, and every value has been checked against a black-box recovery from the IRBEM oracle to better than 1.2e-9 relative (see the file brief) — a transcription check that cannot pass by accident.
