Abstract
A review has been made of the spin Hamiltonian forms for all the 32 point groups, including linear magnetic field-dependent terms in spin operators\(\hat O_1^m \),\(\hat O_3^m \),\(\hat O_5^m \),\(\hat O_1^m \),\(\hat O_3^m \), and\(\hat O_5^m \). All spin operators, as well as their matrix elements, to be used in constructing spin Hamiltonian matrices, have been listed. The various point group aggregates for distinct spin-Hamiltonian forms have been classified. In addition, descent of symmetry point groups, useful for studying structural phase transitions, have been indicated.
