The Jahn-Teller effect in icosahedral symmetry

The resurgence of interest in properties of molecules of icosahedral symmetry follows the discovery of the C<sub>60</sub> molecule. Due to the high symmetry of the icosahedron, almost all the electronic and vibrational levels are highly degenerate, so that in dealing with properties of t...
