Hi!
I am a student at the University of Washington. I dilly dally in a few fields - Math, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science - and am trying to find my way into a graduate school in one of these fields. I'm currently working in a theoretical chemistry group, so I spend a lot of my time on the physics and stack overflow sites. The link under 'website' is our group's site - I'm the dude in the middle.

How is parity relevant to determining angular momentum? I still don't see how this is relevant to the problem. Could you give an example of $S_A$, $J_A$, $L$, $S_1$, and $S_2$ that work? How does the intrinsic parity of particles translate into the total angular momentum J? |

How is parity relevant to determining angular momentum? But if we use A's frame, then there is no meaning to asking for solutions for even and odd parity A. Doesn't the problem as stated demand that we work in the lab frame? Also, am I correct in assuming that J of particle A must be an integer, because L and S of the B particles are both integers? |

Meaning of juxtaposition of vectors This was my original thought but I wanted to be sure. |

Meaning of juxtaposition of vectors Great answer, thanks! And yes - I got that the indices refer to different objects rather than matrix components. Did you happen to catch the intuition behind equation (6)? It supposed to represent how one dipole (j) 'talks' to another dipole (k) - but the expression looks complicated and there's no source or explanation for it. |

Intuition behind Fourier transformed spaces Yeah - I understood mathematically why there wasn't a time dependence, but I guess I'm looking for intuition - it's easy to understand time/space dependence, but what is a momentum/wavelength dependent electric field? |
