📚 Angular momentum is key in understanding many physical situations, perhaps most importantly the behaviour of particles moving in central potentials, like an electron in a hydrogen atom. In this video we upgrade classical angular momentum to a quantum mechanical operator, and we explore some of its properties. We also learn that angular momentum in quantum mechanics is not restricted to *orbital* angular momentum and introduce the idea of *spin* angular momentum, which has no classical analogue.
