摘要：

Asymptotic limits are given for the SU(2) Wigner D-mn(j) functions as j --> infinity for three domains of m and n. Similar asymptotic limits are given for the SU(3) Wigner functions of an irrep with highest weight (lambda ,0) as lambda --> infinity. The results are shown to be relevant to the analysis of experiments with quantum interferometers. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
