ham2nqi.m

Converts a single-spin Hamiltonian back into the Zeeman and quadrupolar interaction parameters that had been used to generate it.

Syntax

                   [omega,Q]=ham2nqi(H)

Arguments

       H - single-spin Hamiltonian written in
           the Zeeman basis for a spin of any
           multiplicity

Outputs

       omega - Larmor frequencies, rad/s
           Q - symmetric traceless quadrupolar
               coupling tensor, rad/s
    The outputs are returned such that:
       H = omega(1)*Sx + omega(2)*Sy + omega(3)*Sz +
                + [Sx Sy Sz]*Q*[Sx Sy Sz].';
    An error is produced if the Hamilonian contains
    any terms (for example, cubic) beyond those, or
    if it is not Hermitian and traceless.
