The above terms appear next to each other in a course description (kinetics).

Aren't they synonyms?

angular vs. linear momentum of a particle system/system of particles
Explanation:
In Newtonian mechanics, linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum (pl. momenta) is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. It is a vector quantity, possessing a magnitude and a direction in three-dimensional space. If m is an object's mass and v is the velocity (also a vector), then the momentum is

Pęd – wektorowa wielkość fizyczna opisująca mechanikę, a więc ruch i oddziaływania obiektu fizycznego. Pęd mogą mieć wszystkie formy materii, np. ciała o niezerowej masie spoczynkowej, pole elektromagnetyczne, pole grawitacyjne
https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pęd_(fizyka)


Moment pędu (kręt) – wektorowa wielkość fizyczna opisująca ruch ciała, zwłaszcza jego ruch obrotowy.
https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_pędu

In physics, angular momentum (rarely, moment of momentum or rotational momentum) is the rotational equivalent of linear momentum. It is an important quantity in physics because it is a conserved quantity—the total angular momentum of a closed system remains constant.

agree  M.A.B.: Pęd is simply momentum, no need to add linear.
