Homework Statement
I want to expand sin(theta) in spherical harmonics.
Well, actually I want
(3cos^2(theta+45°)-1)*exp(i*(psi+45°))
but I think I could find my mistake by the above simple example.

The Attempt at a Solution
I seem to get zero for all coefficients by the integrals from wikipedia.
Can I not expand along an arbitrary axis?
