Spherical-harmonic tensors
The connection between spherical harmonics and symmetric tensors is explored. For each spherical harmonic, a corresponding traceless symmetric tensor is constructed. These tensors are then extended to include nonzero traces, providing an orthonormal angular-momentum eigenbasis for symmetric tensors...
