This book deals with the coupling of two or more angular  momenta, angular momentum coupling coefficients, rotation matrices,  tensor operators, evaluation of matrix elements, the gradient formula,  identical particles, statistical tensors and polarization phenomena,  traces of angular momentum matrices, the helicity formalism and the  spin states of the Dirac particle. These topics cover the entire range  of angular momentum techniques that are being widely used in the study  of both non-relativistic and relativistic problems in physics. At the  end of each chapter, review questions, problems and solutions to  selected problems are given in order to enable the reader to have a  clearer understanding of the subject.   Audience: This volume will serve as a valuable reference  monograph for research workers in particle physics, nuclear physics  and material science. It is also recommended as a text in angular  momentum techniques for graduate students of physics and chemistry.
