Some properties of the five-dimensional surface harmonics

  • 1. Department of Physics, School of Science and Technology, University of Sussex, Brighton BN1 9QH (United Kingdom)

Description

Ladder operators and a triangular relation are used to derive the five-dimensional surface harmonics with definite angular momentum, as used in studies of the dynamics of a quadrupole shape in the nuclear collective model. A new basis is used which leads to solutions in terms of associated Legendre functions. The role of the Octahedral symmetry group and the limit of large quantum numbers are discussed
