| contents | We present a density functional theory study of the low-temperature structural, magnetic, and proposed charge-quadrupolar ordering in the double perovskite, Ba$_2$MgReO$_6$. Ba$_2$MgReO$_6$ is a spin-orbit-driven Mott insulator with a symmetry-lowering structural phase transition at 33\,K and a canted antiferromagnetic ordering of $5d^1$ Re magnetic moments at 18\,K. Our calculations confirm the existence of the proposed charge quadrupolar order and discover an additional, previously hidden, ordered charge quadrupolar component. By separately isolating the structural distortions and the orientations of the magnetic dipoles, we determine the relationship between the charge quadrupolar, structural and magnetic orders, finding that either a local structural distortion or a specific magnetic dipole orientation is required to lower the symmetry and enable the existence of charge quadrupoles. Our work establishes the crystal structure -- magnetic dipole -- charge multipole relationship in Ba$_2$MgReO$_6$ and related 5$d^1$ double perovskites, and illustrates a method for separating and analyzing the contributions and interactions of structural, magnetic, and charge orders beyond the usual dipole level. |
