Angular Momentum and
Magnetic Momentum Numbers (2)

l=3,m=-3,-2,-1,0,+1,+2,+3

When l=3, there are seven functions those have a different m value.

Y[3,-3](t,p) = -sqrt(35/64pi) sin(t)sin(t)sin(t) exp(-3i p)
Y[3,-2](t,p) =  sqrt(105/32pi) sin(t)sin(t)cos(t) exp(-2i p)
Y[3,-1](t,p) = -sqrt(21/64pi) sin(t) {5cos(t)cos(t)-1} exp(-i p)
Y[3, 0](t,p) =  sqrt(7/16pi) {5cos(t)cos(t)cos(t)-3cos(t)}
Y[3, 1](t,p) =  sqrt(21/64pi) sin(t) {5cos(t)cos(t)-1} exp( i p)
Y[3, 2](t,p) =  sqrt(105/32pi) sin(t)sin(t)cos(t) exp( 2i p)
Y[3, 3](t,p) =  sqrt(35/64pi) sin(t)sin(t)sin(t) exp( 3i p)

Similar to the case of l=2 , we show the functions of m>0. Functions like fx(u,v) are the same as the previously defined ones .

gnuplot> a= 7.0/(16*pi)
