Quantum mechanics of the rigid rotator

Квантовая механика жесткого ротатора

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

A representation of the position and angular-momentum variables of a quantum-mechanical rigid rotator is obtained from general symmetry principles. The method used is similar to the treatment of spin in the case of the quantum particle.

Riassunto

Si ricava, a partire dai principi generali di simmetria, una rappresentazione delle variabili della posizione e dell’impulso angolare di un rotore rigido della meccanica quantistica. Il metodo usato è simile al trattamento dello spin nel caso di una particella quantistica.

Резюме

Из общих принципов симметрии выводится представление для квантовомеханического жесткого ротатора, зависящее от переменных положения и момехта. Предложенный метод аналогичен рассмотрению спина в случае квантовой частицы.
