Quantum Numbers
In Quantum mechanics, quantum physics and chemistry, quantum numbers are quantities that characterize the possible states of the system. To fully specify the state of the electron in a hydrogen atom, four quantum numbers are needed. The traditional set of quantum numbers includes the Principal quantum number, principal, Azimuthal quantum number, azimuthal, Magnetic quantum number, magnetic, and Spin quantum number, spin quantum numbers. To describe other systems, different quantum numbers are required. For subatomic particles, one needs to introduce new quantum numbers, such as the flavour (particle physics), flavour of quarks, which have no classical correspondence. Quantum numbers are closely related to eigenvalues of observables. When the corresponding observable commutes with the Hamiltonian (quantum mechanics), Hamiltonian of the system, the quantum number is said to be "Good quantum number, good", and acts as a constant of motion in the quantum dynamics.
