 I'm not entirely sure, but I think it means where the states are eigenfunctions of <math>J_z</math>, <math>L_z</math>, and <math>S_z</math>. I'm not entirely sure, but I think it means where the states are eigenfunctions of <math>J_z</math>, <math>L_z</math>, and <math>S_z</math>.

 i thought it meant states(combination of vectors) that will give you a diagonal matrix at the end instead of states that will have off-diagonal parts as well. not sure though! i thought it meant states(combination of vectors) that will give you a diagonal matrix at the end instead of states that will have off-diagonal parts as well. not sure though!

 +Thanks, but I'm still confused. Based on your explanation, "good" states seems like to have only diagonal terms in the matrix. I thought that it has some relation with a balance of fine structure and zeeman effect.
