... Now, it will turn out that a and b can’t be just any numbers. The word ”quantum” in ”quantum mechanics” refers to the fact that many operators have ”quantized” eigenvalues – eigenvalues that can only take on a limited, discrete set of values.

Eigenfunctions are identified by a set of quantum numbers that determine the particular shape of the eigenfunction in space (see Geometric Properties of the Eigenfunctions below) as well as its frequency of evolution through time.

Lecture Notes
... In this chapter we will study the rotational motion of rigid bodies about fixed axes. A rigid body is defined as one that can rotate with all its parts locked together and without any change of its shape. A fixed axis means that the object rotates about an axis that does not move. We can describe th ...
