The Jahn–Teller and Pseudo-Jahn–Teller Effects: A Unique and Only Source of Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Atomic Matter

In a mostly review paper, we show that the important problem of symmetry, broken symmetry, and spontaneous broken symmetry of polyatomic systems is directly related to the Jahn–Teller (JT) and pseudo-Jahn–Teller (PJT) effects, including the <i>hidden</i>-JT and <i>hidden</i>-...
