Point Group Symmetry Applications: Methods and Tables Book

In recent years there has been a resurgence in the application of group theory to the problems poised by various characteristics of transition metal and lanthanides. Highly sophisticated experimental techniques, such as magnetic circular dichroism, electron paramagnetic resonance, and single-crystal polarized spectra, have provided a wealth of significant data.

This volume deals with some of the most critical recent advances in this field. Foremost authorities discuss a wide range of topics, including point group coupling coefficients and the NMR problem. Applications of group theory to chemistry, spectroscopy, crystal physics, magnetic circular dichroism, and atomic and molecular physics are considered as well.
