Suppose the Hamiltonian of a rigid rotator in the magnetic field perpendicular to the axis is of the form(Merzbacher 1970, problem 17-1)
"if terms quadratic in the field are neglected. Assuming B, use Pertubation to the lowest nonvanishing order to get approximate energy eigenvalues
we rotate the system in the direction which is in the Z' axis, thus, where the angel between Z and Z' can be written we can have The eigen state with eigen value
If B>>Cshould be considered as none pertubative Hamiltonian and behaves as pertubative term. So the none pertubative eigen value and eigen states areand
