Reactive scattering with row-orthonormal hypersphericaludcoordinates. 4. Four-dimensional-space Wigner rotationudfunction for pentaatomic systems

摘要

The row-orthonormal hyperspherical coordinate (ROHC) approach to calculating state-to-state reaction cross sections and bound state levels of N-atom systems requires the use of angular momentum tensors and Wigner rotation functions in a space of dimension N − 1. The properties of those tensors and functions are discussed for arbitrary N and determined for N = 5 in terms of the 6 Euler angles involved in 4-dimensional space.udududud
