Dear Molpro Users,
I came um with two doubts in how interpret the Spin-Orbit matrix.
For example, the following SO matrix
********************************************************************
Nr  State  S   SZ       1          2          3          4

   1   1.1  0.0  0.0       0.00       2.20       0.00       2.20
                           0.00    -146.33       0.01     146.33

   2   1.1  1.0  1.0       2.20    1306.67       0.00       0.00
                         146.33       0.00       0.00       0.00

   3   1.1  1.0  0.0       0.00       0.00    1306.67       0.00
                          -0.01       0.00       0.00       0.00

   4   1.1  1.0 -1.0       2.20       0.00       0.00    1306.67
                        -146.33       0.00       0.00       0.00
**********************************************************************

have two numbers for each matrix element, that I suspect that one is  
real and the other is imaginary. Does anyone know which one is real?  
In order to get the SO matrix value the imaginary part is important to  
interpret or only the real part should be taken into account?

Thank you very much for your attention!
