KAPTEIN-CLOSS RULES
Rules used to predict the sign of CIDNP effects.

KASHA RULE
Polyatomic molecular entities luminesce with appreciable yield only from the lowest excited state of a given multiplicity. There are exceptions to this rule.

KASHA-VAVILOV RULE
The quantum yield of luminescence is independent of the wavelength of exciting radiation. There are exceptions to this rule.

KOOPMANS' THEOREM
See photoelectron spectroscopy.

KRYPTON ION LASER
