Hund’s rules2 1S

JL

• First rule: seek the state with highest possible spin S(lowest energy)

• Second rule: for given spin S, the state with highest possible angular momentum L has lowest energy

• Third rule: If shell no more than half filled, the state with J=IL-SI

has lowest energy If shell more than half filled, the state with J=L+S

has lowest energy
