TERM SYMBOLS
For a multi-electron atoms, the spectrum or transitions
between different levels could only be explained if we define a
new system of Term/Energy levels/states that takes into account
the interaction between electrons (in terms of considering the
coupling between orbital and spin angular momentum of
electrons).
L = l1 + l2, l1 + l2 1, l1 + l2 2,.., l1 l2
Clebsch-Gordan Series
Total spin angular momentum could represented as
S = s1 + s2, s1 + s2 1, s1 + s2 2,.., s1 s2
Russell-Saunders coupling
