Table of spherical harmonics

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 $\theta$ and $\varphi \,$ through the usual spherical-to-Cartesian coordinate transformation:

${\begin{aligned}x&=r\sin \theta \cos \varphi \\y&=r\sin \theta \sin \varphi \\z&=r\cos \theta \end{aligned}}$
