Abstract
A method of generating orthogonal polar coordinate systems in N-dimensional space is given. Commuting angular-momentum operators are easily found in the coordinate systems generated; these operators are of a single form which depends on two parameters. A short table of coordinate systems and the resulting structure of quantum numbers and eigenfunctions is given.Keywords
