Keyboard graph navigation: press N for concepts or E for relations; use arrow keys, Home, and End to move; Enter selects; Shift plus Enter selects and centers; plus and minus zoom; zero fits; Escape clears the selection. Use the visible viewport buttons as alternatives to dragging, wheel, and pinch gestures.
Select a concept
Select any concept, construction junction, or annotated relation by pointer, touch, search, or keyboard.
Construction junctions are diamonds. They show where multiple structures must coexist on the same carrier and satisfy compatibility conditions.
Move selected concept
Single-pointer and keyboard alternatives to dragging. Each activation moves the selected concept one step.

Authored annotation
predicts d-level transitions
Authored explanation
Crystal-field splittings help organize electronic spectra and magnetism, while covalency, spin–orbit coupling, and vibronic effects refine assignments.
How to interpret this relation type
A theory, law, or interaction describes the behavior of the target within a stated regime. The edge detail must state important limits or qualifications.

Authored annotation
drives and probes molecular transitions
Authored explanation
Electromagnetic radiation couples to molecular charge and current distributions, producing frequency-, polarization-, and geometry-dependent absorption, emission, or scattering measured in molecular spectroscopy.
How to interpret this relation type
The source field, particle, charge, current, or interaction couples to, acts on, binds, forms, or stabilizes the target in the stated regime. The edge label and detail must identify the exact coupling, interaction, or binding claim and its qualifications.
Resolved transition frequencies, intensities, splittings, and selection patterns test structural assignments, but extracting geometry or dynamics requires an explicit spectroscopic model and uncertainty analysis.
How to interpret this relation type
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.

Authored explanation
Molecular symmetry classifies states and normal modes and constrains which transitions can carry intensity.
