Conceptual Shift inOur Understanding of DegenerateRadical Spin Systems: Spin-Rotation Coupling Turned on Its Head

Abstract For most chemists, Kramers’ degeneracy refers to the fact that for any radical system, every potential energy surface is at least doubly degenerate (with spin up and spin down, time-reversed solutions) for all nuclear positions X. Yet, as is well-known to the community o...
