Graphical Approach to Correlations in High-Spin Systems

摘要

We present a graphical technique for generating and indexing spin monomials of high-spin systems. The procedure consists of developing a graph with at most n line segments from each node in a given row to the one immediately lower, where n is the multiplicity of single-particle spin function. The paths lead to monomials with definite M values at each node. This technique has been used to generate and diagonalize the model spin Hamiltonian.
