It is important to realize that while the uppennost diagonal elements of these matrices are numbers, the other diagonal element is a matrix of dimension N. Specifically, these are the matrix representations of Hq and Fin the basis q which consists of all the original set, apart from i.e. 

The interpretation of MAS experiments on nuclei with spin / > Fin non-cubic enviromnents is more complex than for / = Fiuiclei since the effect of the quadnipolar interaction is to spread the i <-> (i - 1) transition over a frequency range (2m. - 1)Vq. This usually means that for non-integer nuclei only the - transition is observed since, to first order in tire quadnipolar interaction, it is unaffected. Flowever, usually second-order effects are important and the angular dependence of the - ytransition has both P2(cos 0) andP Ccos 9) terms, only the first of which is cancelled by MAS. As a result, the line is narrowed by only a factor of 3.6, and it is necessary to spin faster than the residual linewidth Avq where...

Total spin den sity reflects th e excess probability of fin din g a versus P electrons in an open-shell system. Tor a system m which the a electron density is equal to the P electron density (for example, a closed-shell system), the spin density is zero.

To fin d a first order saddle poiri t (i.e., a trail sition structure), a m ax-imiim must be found in on e (and on/y on e) direction and minima in all other directions, with the Hessian (the matrix of second energy derivatives with respect to the geometrical parameters) bein g varied. So, a tran sition structu re is ch aracterized by th e poin t wh ere all th e first derivatives of en ergy with respect to variation of geometrical parameters are zero (as for geometry optimization) and the second derivative matrix, the Hessian, has one and only one negative eigenvalue.
