3 Angular Momentum and Spherical Harmonics For a quantum mechanical system that is able to rotate in 3D, one can always define a set of angular momentum operators J. Jy, J., often collectively written as a vector J. They must satisfy the commutation relations (, ] = ihſ, , Îu] = ihſ, J., ſu] = ihỈy. (1) In a more condensed notation, we may write [1,1]] = Žiheikh, i, j= 1,2,3 k=1 Here we've used the Levi-Civita symbol, defined as...

2. In classical mechanics, we learned that particles undergoing some sort of orbital or circular motion have angular momentum. For ordinary momemtum, we learned that the conservation of momentum occurs because a system is translation invariant. It is possible to show (we won't do it here in complete generality) that a classical mechanics system has conserved angular momentum if it is rotation invariant. In classical mechanics angular momentum L is given by In this problem we're going to work out...

3.1 Rotations and Angular-Momentum Commutation Relations 159 We are particularly interested in an infinitesimal form of Ry: (3.1.4) where terms of order & and higher are ignored. Likewise, we have R0= ° :- R(E) = 1 (3.1.5) and (3.1.5b) - E01 which may be read from (3.1.4) by cyclic permutations of x, y, zthat is, x y , y → 2,2 → x....

a) Derive the following commutator relationships between the components of angular momentum L and of p: (i) [Ly, px] = −ih(bar)pz (ii) [Ly, pz] = ih(bar)px (iii) [Ly, p2x ] = −2ih(bar)pxpz (iiii) [Ly, p2z ] = 2ih(bar)pxpz (b) Hence show that the square L2 of the angular momentum operator L commutes with the kinetic energy operator p2/2m = (p2x + p2y + p2z )/2m.
