The Distribution of Intensities of Photons at a Given Er With a Given Momentum

Mathematically, be interesting to people, um, if you know about signs and cot signs. The corresponding thing for three dimensions on a sphere of things called spherical harmonics. And the distribution of intensities of photons at a given er with with atoms with a given angmomentum, is determined by these spherical harmonics in 3D. So so that that's more or less how it works.
