Angular momentum coupling

ID: angular-momentum-coupling

Angular momentum coupling refers to the way angular momentum is combined or related when multiple systems, particles, or contributions are involved. In quantum mechanics, this concept is particularly significant when dealing with systems that have multiple angular momentum contributions from different particles or subsystems. Here are some key points to understand about angular momentum coupling: 1. **Total Angular Momentum**: In a system with multiple particles, each with its own angular momentum, the total angular momentum is the vector sum of the individual angular momenta.
