A Companion to Angular MomentumValeria D. Kleiman Hongkun Park Robert J. Gordon Richard N. ZareLabel: Wiley-InterscienceDescription: Angular momentum is a basic concept used in classical physics. Examples of phenomena that are related to angular momentum are: 1) Why a moving bicycle does not fall over and 2) why the currents in the ocean of the rotating earth tend to follow circular motions. Designed as a learning tool for those with limited background in quantum mechanics and to compliment Zare's Angular Momentum this book provides examples problems & solutions in angular momentum in quantum mechanics and its applications to chemistry and physics.
