Appendix C Symbols, conversions, and atomic units This appendix provides a tabulation of all symbols used throughout this thesis, as well as conversion units that may useful for reference while comparing results. Tabel C.6 lists the most common energy units and their conversion factors. All operators in this thesis are denoted as Ô, all matrices are in bold-face, M, and all vector quantities appear with a vector symbol, ~v. Symbols in each table are listed alphabetically. Atomic units were used in this thesis during the simulations of rotational wave packets (see Section 4.4.1). Since the eigenvalues of the angular momentum operators are quantized according to ~, atomic units are convenient in discussions of angular momentum since ~ receives the numerical value 1. The mass of the electron, me , and the charge of the proton, e0 , and permittivity 4π²0 are also set to 1 in atomic units. Table C.7 lists several common physical quantities in atomic units. 162 Symbols, conversions, and atomic units QUANTITY SYMBOL Energies exact ground state nonrelativistic energy correlation energy
