For alpha > 0, the lowest energy is found when the dumbbell is parallel to the z-axis (previous slide).
When alpha < 0, the situation on the previous slide is reversed so now the lowest energy is found when the dumbbell is in the xy-plane.
When alpha = 0, the particular configuration of the dumbbell does not matter because there is no quadrupole moment contribution.
