This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Each stable atomic species and charge state has a lowest-energy state within the chosen Hamiltonian and sector.
The target represents a state, property, observable, or state-dependent description associated with the source system or theory.

A ground state is a quantum state of minimum energy in a specified Hamiltonian sector.
The target is a member or subtype of the broader source class.
