Abstract
The spin-orbit interaction in d$^n$ complexes is discussed using the tensor operator methods of Tanabe & Kamimura, and some of their tables of transformation coefficients are extended. The complete spin-orbit matrices for the d$^3$, d$^7$ configurations are given in a strong cubic field scheme. Using these matrices and probable values of parameters, we have calculated energy levels for trivalent chromium in magnesium oxide and for potassium hexachloromolybdate and iridium hexafluoride.Keywords
