Abstract
The translational addition theorems for the spherical scalar and vector
wave functions are derived in a novel, unified way based on the simple
and well-known concepts of the radiation and incoming wave patterns.
This approach makes the derivation simpler and more transparent compared
to the previous approaches. As a result, we also obtain alternative and
partly simpler expressions for the translation coefficients in the
vector case.
