Asymmetric Top Rotational Transition Moment

This represents the interaction of the molecular rotational magnetic moment with an external magnetic field, and is typically written in spherical tensor notation as:

μNBk=0..2(-1)k((2k+1)/3)½T1(grk,S)

Note that all the parameters have units of Nuclear Magnetons; published values will often use Bohr Magnetons. Normally only the diagonal terms, graa, grbb and grcc, are determined.

Parameters

graa graa; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons
grbb grbb; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons
grcc grcc; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons
grabbar ½(grab + grba); Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
gracbar ½(grac + grca); Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
grbcbar ½(grbc + grcb); Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
gramb grab - grba; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
gramc grac - grca; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
grbmc grbc - grcb; Default is 0 Nuclear Magnetons.
