zero_field_energy_mat: Construct Zero Field Energy Matrix.

Description Usage Arguments Details

Description

zero_field_energy_mat constructs a matrix with the zero field energies on the diagonal.

Usage

1

Arguments

n

A numeric. A vector that contains a series of principle quantum numbers.

l

A numeric. A vector that contains a series of orbital angular momentum quantum numbers.

j

A numeric. A vector that contains a series of total angular momentum quantum numbers.

Details

This function takes vectors for n, l, and j and returns a matrix with the energies for those n, l, and j states on the diagonal. To create the vectors for n, l, and j, state_list should be used. This will create a matrix with all the combinations of n, l, and j needed to create the Stark matrix. The energy is determined by:

E = -1 / (2* (n - δ(n, l, j))^2)

where δ(n, l, j) is determined by quantum_defect.
