A word of caution should be raised. The formidable process of conducting such spatial integration should be viewed as principally symbolic. Although the mathematical operations will be valid, it is rare that in our application they will be so complicated. Indeed, in most cases, these operations will be very simple. For example, iff(x,y,z, t) is uniform in space, then we simply have, for Equation (3.1),... 

This engraving is found in the Hermetic Museum and it shows the Athanor [or Furnace of the Alchemists] and the principal symbolic animals belonging to Hermeticism. This particular Athanor has a somewhat fanciful structure but it does include the main parts the [brick-base] tower surmounted by a dome, the sand bath, and the Philosophical Egg. The serpent enclosed within the Egg represents the Matter of the Stone. 

These are the principal symbols for constants and variables, together with the Parts of the text in which they appear, usually described by equation numbers, but sometimes by section where they are discussed in prose. The tables in which values are listed are also given. A few key units are also included. 

Symmetry Notation.—A state is described in terms of the behavior of the electronic wave function under the symmetry operations of the point group to which the molecule belongs. The characters of the one-electron orbitals are determined by inspection of the character table the product of the characters of the singly occupied orbitals gives the character of the molecular wave function. A superscript is added on the left side of the principal symbol to show the multiplicity of the state. Where appropriate, the subscript letters g (gerade) and u (ungerade) are added to the symbol to show whether or not the molecular wave function is symmetric with respect to inversion through a center of symmetry.
