Euler vectors and rotations about an arbitrary axis
Abstract
We consider the relationships between the rotation matrix associated with a rotation through θ about an arbitrary axis and the Euler vector 0 lying along that axis with magnitude θ. © 1978, American Association of Physics Teachers. All rights reserved.
