    1) The document describes the rigid rotor model of a diatomic molecule rotating about its center of mass. It defines the moment of inertia I and shows that the kinetic energy K of rotation can be expressed as K = (1/2)Iω2, where ω is the angular velocity. 2) It further shows that for a diatomic molecule, the moment of inertia I is equal to μr02, where μ is the reduced mass and r0 is the bond length. This reduces the problem to that of a single particle with mass μ rotating at a fixed distance r0 from the center of mass. 3) It then introduces the quantum mechanical treatment by writing the Hamiltonian in spherical polar coordinates and obtaining
