The equations (3.57)and (3.58) tell us that there is a Van Vleck type
susceptibility which, because of the overall cubic symmetry of the prob-
lem, must be isotropic. At T = 0 (using the Lande factor g = 0.8 which
belongs to the 3H4 multiplet)

Since the rl-r4 splitting is very small: A 7meV [140], we predict that

the Van Vleck susceptibility is huge. This is indeed the case: the mea-
