In return of the VAMDC query, the server returns the filtered database under the VADMC-XSAMS format (modified version of the XML Schema for Atoms, Molecules and Solids3). This is basically an XML file providing several tables. LINEDB is interested in the `<Species><Molecules>` table (which provides a collection of `<Molecule>` blocks) and the `<Processes><Radiative>` table (which provide a collection of `<RadiativeTransition>` blocks.
