Abstract

A family of angular momentum coherent states on the sphere is constructed using previous work by Aragone et al [1]. These states depend on a complex parameter which allows an arbitrary squeezing of the angular momentum uncertainties. The time evolution of these states is analyzed assuming a rigid body hamiltonian. The rich scenario of fractional revivals is exhibited with cloning and many interference effects.
