+1 for introducing them as real-valued functions over cartesian coordinates! Typically, spherical harmonics are introduced as a complex function over spherical coordinates, which makes them much easier to derive, but imo hides their beauty. The real-valued, cartesian form of regular spherical harmonics is also called "solid harmonics" or "harmonic polynomials", in case you want to dig deeper. |
