A note on recursive calculations of particular 9j coefficients

  • J.-C. PAIN

Abstract

The calculation of angular-momentum coupling transformation matrices can be very time consuming and alternative methods, even if they apply only in special cases, are helpful. We present a recursion relation for the calculation of particular 9j symbols used in the quantum theory of angular momentum. Keywords: Angular momentum, 9j coefficient, recursion relation
