thanks for your response, It's a beautiful explanation of the spherical harmonics. But I want to visualize also the radial part which cannot be plotted with only a 3d plot, because it has 3 parameters in spherical coordinates (r,theta,phi). The formula tells how big the probability is to find a particle at that specific point (r,theta,phi). So the formula returns a number for each point in a 3D region. I want to visualize it on the following way: If there is less probability on a specific point according to the formula you make that point very transparent and otherwise if the probability is very high, you make that point less transparent. that's how I imagine a 3D density plot. By the way a 2D density polar-plot satisfies me also, but it appears to me that it isn't possible with maple.
