J. Sugar and A. Musgrove (J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 22, 1213 (1993)) have published tables of energy levels for germanium atoms and cations from Ge+ to Ge+31. The lowest-lying energy levels in neutral Ge are as follows:

(E/hc)/cm-1 3 Po 0 3 P 557.1 3 P 1410.0 D2 7125.3

Calculate the electronic partition function at 298K and 1000K by direct summation.
