Abstract
With a view to obtaining an orthogonal solution to the state labelling problem of SU(3) in an O(3) basis, four independent operators which shift the eigenvalues of the O(3) Casimir operator L2 are constructed. The hermiticity properties of these operators, and of certain of their products which commute with L2, are discussed.Keywords
