Abstract
The three-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator is analyzed in spherical coordinates. The Schrödinger equation is solved using separation of variables. The system exhibits a quantized energy spectrum determined by quantum numbers. Results describe the structure of radial and angular wavefunctions.
