Abstract
A method of obtaining the angular parts of one electron wave functions in all crystal lattices is discussed. The functions are shown to be bases for irreducible representations of rotation groups. Tables of these functions are given for use in cubic and close packed hexagonal lattices. Consideration is also given to angular wave functions in polyatomic crystals.Keywords
