Abstract
A more accurate formula for the ruby spin Hamiltonian (than used in earlier JPL programs) is presented for calculating the ground-state paramagnetic spectrum of ruby and transition probability matrix elements between quantum states induced by radio-frequency magnetic fields. A coordinate system is chosen that simplifies the expressions for the radio-frequency magnetic field. Applications of the computer program to several past and current Deep Space Network maser designs are presented. The program is included in an appendix along with a sample output.
