Wigner3j edit page

Compute the Wigner 3j symbol using the Racah formula.

W = Wigner3j( J123, M123 )

J123 = [J1, J2, J3], with the condition: Ji - Jj <= Jk <= (Ji + Jj) (i,j,k are permutations of 1,2,3) M123 = [M1, M2, M3], with the conditions: Mi <= Ji (i = 1,2,3) M1 + M2 + M3 = 0 All Ji and Mi have to be half integers (correspondingly).
