Spin Magnetic Transition Moment

This is appropriate for a magnetic dipole transition moment carried by the electronic spin angular momentum. For linear molecules, create two components with components 0 and 1 with equal strengths to reflect the two components (Sz and S±) of the spin operator.

Settings

Rank Rank of transition - 2 (twice 1) for a normal electric dipole transition.
Component Projection quantum number of transition moment - 0 for a parallel transition, 1 for a perpendicular transition.

Parameters

Strength Transition (dipole) moment in units of the Bohr magneton. Note that the relative intensity is proportional to the square of this value. The default for this value is gS = 0023193043622.
C J dependence of transition moment
D J dependence of transition moment
