[Wien] spin orbit coupling

[shamik chakrabarti]

Dear Gerhard Fecher Sir,

                                    Thank you very much for your reply. Sir
please give me the answer for another queation. Which quantization takes
place along that (say 001) axis ?.......sir can you please suggest some
reference for this concept.
