This is a table of orthonormalized spherical harmonics that employ the Condon-Shortley phase up to degree l=10. Some of these formulas give the "Cartesian" version. This assumes x, y, z, and r are related to $θ$ and $\varphi\,$ through the usual spherical-to-Cartesian coordinate transformation:

$x = r \sin\theta\cos\varphi\,$

$y = r \sin\theta\sin\varphi\,$

$z = r \cos\theta\,$
