Higher Order Terms in the Magnetic Interaction of an Ion in a Solid.

Abstract

The interaction Hamiltonian of an electron on an ion in the presence of a magnetic dipole is derived. This interaction is then cast into unit spherical tensor form for the N electron configuration (nl) superscript N. The lowest term in the interaction is shown to be the conventional term used in an effective internal field approximation. The remaining terms of the interaction can cause term dependent splitting of a magnetic impurity. (Author)
