<tabbox Why is it interesting?> 
  
Angular momentum is together with energy and ordinary momentum one of the basic fundamentally conserved quantities in physics. 

Angular momentum arises as a conserved quantity in every system which is rotational symmetric. This follows from [[theorems:noethers_theorems|Noether's theorem]].
