hello, does anyone know what relationship exists, if exists, between the concept of multiplets in group theory and the multiplet as spin state of a system of particles?
Thanks,

Multiplets in group theory refer to a set of energy levels or states that have the same energy but differ in other quantum numbers.
Multiplets are classified based on the symmetry of the molecule or system. They can be either symmetric or antisymmetric.
Multiplets provide a way to understand the behavior of molecules and systems in terms of their symmetries, and help to predict their properties and interactions.
Some common types of multiplets include singlets, doublets, triplets, quartets, and quintets. These refer to the number of states or energy levels within a multiplet set.
Multiplets can be represented using diagrams, such as energy level diagrams or symmetry diagrams, to visualize the different states and their symmetries.
