In general how does one find the basis of a composite system of particles with different spin. Say for example spin 1, spin 1/2, and spin 5/2.
My first thought was to consider the uncoupled basis wherein the particles with spin 1/2 and spin 5/2 have similar state kets. Would the basis for the particle of spin 5/2 "envelope" the basis of the particle with spin 1/2?
