This generates the following table.

My problem is that the table looks shabby. It looks very cluttered. Is there some way to put some gap in each of the boxes between the text and the box borders. The problem is only with the elements of the second column because those have a formula with both superscript and subscript.

What is the most beautiful way to publish this table so that people can read it easily?

PS: I need to keep it to footnotesize. But I don't think that should matter. All I am asking how to put some white space around the formula in the second column so that the formula does into blend into the borders.

I would (a) employ an array environment instead of a tabular environment for the main table, (b) I wouldn't use the 'inner' tabular environments at all, (c) I'd use the line-drawing macros of the booktabs package for fewer, but well-spaced, horizontal lines, and (d) omit all vertical lines; they're not needed -- really!

Addendum to address the OP's follow-up query:

Is there a way to compress things a little bit more so that this takes the same space as the original one while retaining the aesthetics?

The main point of inserting some extra vertical space between rows, via the addlinespace instructions, was to change the aesthetics, by creating a bit of "breathing space" inside the table. How to retain these aethetics while saving some vertical space isn't going to be straightforward. I suppose that executing setlength{defaultaddspace}{0.3em} immediately before $begin{array}..., and changing the two instances of \[0.5ex] to \0.3ex, should manage the preserve at least some of the aesthetics. Plus, you'll save about two rows of vertical space... The following screenshot juxtaposes the solution shown above with the one that results from reducing the value of defaultaddspace by 40%. (In case you're curious: eliminating the addlinespace directives entirely -- which would definitely affect the aesthetics in a major way! -- would save another 1 to 2 rows.)

With the help of the booktabs and the cellspace package you can achieve the following output:

Is it better with the help of cellspace and makecell?
