This is a table of orthonormalized spherical harmonics that employ the Condon-Shortley phase up to degree l = 10. Some of these formulas give the "Cartesian" version. This assumes x, y, z, and r are related to and through the usual spherical-to-Cartesian coordinate transformation:

Spherical harmonics with l = 0[1]

Real spherical harmonics with l = 0[2][3]

Spherical harmonics with l = 1[1]

Real spherical harmonics with l = 1[2][3]

Spherical harmonics with l = 2[1]

Real spherical harmonics with l = 2[2][3]

Spherical harmonics with l = 3[1]

Real spherical harmonics with l = 3[2]

Spherical harmonics with l = 4[1]

Real spherical harmonics with l = 4

Spherical harmonics with l = 5[1]

Spherical harmonics with l = 6

Spherical harmonics with l = 7

Spherical harmonics with l = 8

Spherical harmonics with l = 9

Spherical harmonics with l = 10
