In this module we will introduce the course on the theory of angular momentum and then introduce the quantum mechanical definition of orbital momentum. We will then use the spherical harmonics to ...

As a result, the angular momentum of the satellite about the center of the Earth ... Kepler was able to arrive at this second law without the benefit of Newtonian mechanics and differential calculus.

It's basic research that lays the foundation for future technologies in quantum information and ... forward in a circular motion, called orbital angular momentum, unlike the more common ...

The quantum Hall effect ... but also its spin and orbital moment when processing information. Spin is the intrinsic angular momentum of an electron, and the orbital moment arises from the motion ...
