Hi Amir

In question3 there are 8 states, two s-like and 6 p-like so I think the H-matrix should be 8x8
Do I miss someting????
Thanks
Martin

yes, the hamiltonian of the system is 8x8
but you are asked to calculate the
H'
matrix
(i.e. the effective 6x6 valence hamiltonian)

I just want to know that I'm in the right way
In question 3a we have to calculate 20 (there are 36 but I don't calculate the hermitian conjugate) matrix elements and that's just 3a
I am right???

[fruchtman]

yes,
it's not as long as you think

again, dont "find the energies"
