Angular momentum (sometimes called moment of momentum or rotational momentum) is the rotational analog of linear momentum. It is an important physical

mechanics, angular momentum coupling is the procedure of constructing eigenstates of total angular momentum out of eigenstates of separate angular momenta

mechanics, the angular momentum operator is one of several related operators analogous to classical angular momentum. The angular momentum operator plays

Spin is an intrinsic form of angular momentum carried by elementary particles, and thus by composite particles such as hadrons, atomic nuclei, and atoms

angular momentum (i.e., its spin). If s is the particle's spin angular momentum and ℓ its orbital angular momentum vector, the total angular momentum

relative angular momentum (often denoted h → {\displaystyle {\vec {h}}} or h {\displaystyle \mathbf {h} } ) of a body is the angular momentum of that body

physics, relativistic angular momentum refers to the mathematical formalisms and physical concepts that define angular momentum in special relativity

for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes aspects of the angular shape of the orbital. The azimuthal quantum number

The angular momentum of light is a vector quantity that expresses the amount of dynamical rotation present in the electromagnetic field of the light. While
