To do it just use the single bracket list as shown in the picture and select from it the relevant large < or > (far right of first row in pic).

In combination you get correct bra-ket notation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_75 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div
