Dear all,

I tried to find something in the archive but was not successful.

In noncollinear calculations I can plot the spin expectation values using bands.x. Those are calculated using the standard Pauli matrices. Yet, spin is not a good
quantum number anymore once I have SOC. Thus, I actually have to look at the
total angular momentum, J. Is it possible to get the expectation values of J?
Does it make sense at all to think about implementing it?

Regards

Thomas
