JCP321H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Spherical Coordinate System, Hydrogen Atom, Wave Function
Document Summary
What is it used for? the schrodinger equation in 3 dimensional space. Schrodinger equation is used to describe the hydrogen atom, in which case, it is translated into spherical coordinates: Why is it important? the solutions to the 3d schrodinger equation are responsible for the quantum numbers: Relevance the particle in a box as applied to a 3 dimensional system recall the time independent 3d. Relevance the state of having identical energy levels for non-identical quantum states when two quantum states have the same energy levels, they are known as degenerate states: Relevance schrodinger"s equation represented in spherical coordinates here"s what schrodinger"s equation looks like in spherical coordinates: Relevance the quantum mechanical model of the hydrogen atom below is the bohr representation of the. How does it work? hydrogen atom: here"s how we would map the individual parameters of the. Schrodinger equation onto the above image: if we were to find solutions to each of the separated components of the.
