Unified Description of Matrix Mechanics and Wave Mechanics on Hydrogen Atom

Yongqin Wang, Lifeng Kang

A new mathematical method is established to represent the operator, wave functions and square matrix in the same representation. We can obtain the specific square matrices corresponding to the angular momentum and Runge-Lenz vector operators with invoking assistance from the operator relations and the orthonormal wave functions. Furthermore, the first-order differential equations will be given to deduce the specific wave functions without using the solution of the second order Schrodinger equation. As a result, we will unify the descriptions of the matrix mechanics and the wave mechanics on hydrogen atom. By using matrix transformations, we will also deduce the specific matrix representations of the operators in the SO (4,2) group.

The quantum states for Hydrogen atom: spherical harmonics and the orbitals geometrical representation

D. R. Constantin, Liliana Preda, AGNETA A. MOCANU +3 more

Our work utilizes the quantum model of the hydrogen atom which is based on the Schrödinger equation with Coulomb potential. Specifically, we concentrate on the angular components of the wave eigenfunctions derived from this model. We consider the quantum states with n ≤ 4. In order to visualize the orbital shapes of these states, we built in the spherical coordinates system their 3D geometric representations. Furthermore, we use the corresponding spherical harmonics, to calculate the θ nodal values that describe the configurations of these orbital states.

Wave mechanics in quantum phase space: hydrogen atom

Jun Lu

The rigorous solutions of the stationary Schrodinger equation for hydrogen atom are solved with the wave-mechanics method within the framework of the quantum phase-space representation established by Torres-Vega and Frederick. The Fourier-like projection transformations of wave function from the phase space to position and momentum spaces are extended to three-dimensional systems. The eigenfunctions in general position and momentum spaces could be obtained through the transformations from eigenfunction in the phase space.

The function of the radial wave of a hydrogen atom in the principal quantum numbers (n) 4 and 5

Bambang Supriadi, Alex Harijanto, M Maulana +3 more

The simplest atom consisting of a proton and an electron is a hydrogen atom. The energy level and the probability of finding an electron in a hydrogen atom can be determined based on the function of radial wave. The function of radial wave of a hydrogen atom is influenced by the principal quantum number ( n ) and the orbital quantum number ( l ). Completion of the function of radial wave of a hydrogen atom in the principal quantum numbers( n ) 4 and 5 uses the time-independent Schrodinger equation approach in spherical coordinates, variable separation method and uses the associated Laguerre function. The normalized of the function of radial wave of a hydrogen atom R nl ( r ) at n = 4 produces four wave functions:R 40 ( r ); R 41 ( r ); R 42 ( r ); R 43 ( r ), whereas at n = 5 produces five wave functions:R 50 ( r ); R 51 ( r ); R 52 ( r ); R 53 ( r ); R 54 ( r ). The results of this research in the form of the functions of radial wave of hydrogen atom can be used to determine the behavior of electron in a hydrogen atom.

Hydrogen atom as a four-dimensional oscillator

Augustine C. Chen

A coordinate transformation which exhibits the rotational invariance of the hydrogen atom in four-dimensional Hilbert space is introduced. The coordinates are shown to be directly related to the spherical polar and parabolic coordinates in position space. With the use of the transformation, the Schr\"odinger equation for the hydrogen atom left-multiplied by $4r$ is transformed into one for a four-dimensional harmonic oscillator. Solutions are obtained and related to the hydrogenic wave functions. Group-theoretical implications of the transformation and its application to the hydrogen Stark problem are briefly discussed.

Bound States in Three Dimensions: The Atom

Duncan G. Steel

Abstract In this chapter, we go to three dimensions in space and look at the solution of the time independent Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom. The Hamiltonian is then the kinetic energy plus the potential energy due to the Coulomb coupling between the positively charged nucleus and the electron. We construct the angular momentum operator and find that the partial differential equation for the angular momentum eigenfunctions of the spherical coordinates θ,ϕ is the same as the angular part of the ∇2 operator in spherical coordinates. The angular momentum eigenfunctions are the spherical harmonics, with two quantum numbers, l and m, and the solution to the radial part of the Hamiltonian including the Coulomb potential are Laguerre polynomials with one quantum number, called the principle quantum number, n. The hydrogen wave function is the product of a Laguerre polynomial and a spherical harmonic with three quantum numbers. Since these are two- and three-dimensional functions for angular momentum and hydrogen respectively, they are best understood in a series of plots. The chapter concludes by giving the historical letter names to specific orbitals, since they continue to be used today.
