A grouping of one-electron states by principal and orbital angular-momentum quantum numbers, refined by spin–orbit coupling.
wp-physics-electron_shellnist-atomic-statesEach relation below ends at this concept.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Shells decompose into subshells labeled by orbital angular momentum and, relativistically, total angular momentum.
The target is a member or subtype of the broader source class.
wp-physics-electron_shellnist-atomic-statesThis is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
The orbital quantum number labels subshells.
The target represents a state, property, observable, or state-dependent description associated with the source system or theory.
