The Hulthén potential in D-dimensions
D. Agboola
Abstract
An approximate solution of the Schrödinger equation with the Hulthén potential is obtained in D-dimensions with an exponential approximation of the centrifugal term. A solution to the corresponding hyperradial equation is given by using the conventional Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The normalization constants for the Hulthén potential are also computed. The expectation values ⟨r −2⟩, ⟨V(r)⟩ are also obtained by using the Hellmann–Feynman theorem.
