It is explicitly shown that a supersymmetry structure exists in the spectrum of a rigid symmetric top rotor in the molecule-fixed frame. Using projection operators constructed from the time-reversal symmetry of the rotor, the full rotor Hamiltonian is separated into two parts, i.e., the bosonic and fermionic components. The construction, without ambiguity, suggests that the rotor has a supersymmetry in it. This supersymmetry is mathematically equivalent to that of the free rotor on a plane recently noted by Rau.

Combining the analytical transfer matrix method with supersymmetry algebra, a new quantization condition is suggested. To demonstrate the efficiency of the new quantization condition, the eigenenergies of the Coulomb potential are analytically derived. The scattering-led phase shifts are also determined and they are the same for all Coulomb potential states. It is found that the new quantization condition is mathematically simple and exact.

The Clifford algebra of a direct sum of real quadratic spaces appears as the superalgebra tensor product of the Clifford algebras of the summands. The purpose of the current paper is to present a purely settheoretical version of the superalgebra tensor product which will be applicable equally to groups or to their non-associative analogues - quasigroups and loops. Our work is part of a project to make supersymmetry an effective tool for the study of combinatorial structures. Starting from group and quasigroup structures on four-element supersets, our superproduct unifies the construction of the eight-element quaternion and dihedral groups, further leading to a loop structure which hybridizes the two groups. All three of these loops share the same character table.
