[edit] Funky equations
From the text: 'For example, a state with (−1, −1/2) would give an Ω value of Ω = |−1| + (−1/2) = −1/2, which is wrong.'
Maybe I'm seeing things, but |-1| + (-1/2) = 1/2, which is a good value for Ω.
[edit] mistake
I think Ώ can not take negative value since it is defined as the absolute value of ML+MSLiuxunchen (talk) 06:44, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Comments
This seems to overlook more general molecular term symbols where the main symbol is the irreducible representation symmetry of the particular state of interest. This is significantly more interesting and general than diatomic molecular term symbols.
