https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-j%20symbol
In quantum mechanics, the Wigner 3-j symbols, also called 3-jm symbols, are an alternative to Clebsch–Gordan coefficients for the purpose of adding angular momenta. While the two approaches address exactly the same physical problem, the 3-j symbols do so more symmetrically. Mathematical relation to Clebsch–Gordan coef...
